Art AA
The Art program provides two pathways in visual studies: fine art and photography. Both paths provide a broad introduction to the vocabulary, media, tools, processes, styles, and themes in the visual arts. The art curriculum teaches students to develop high levels of individual artistic awareness and expression through their study of the elements of art and principles of design that are the basis of a wide range of transfer programs. In the ever-changing world of the visual arts, using new media and tools requires in-depth understanding of and skill in traditional art-making processes to develop visual literacy, conceptual capacities, and critical thinking. Courses teach technical and formal
