About the Program

This program is designed for students to earn their Associates of Arts (concentrations include Art, Digital Art and Liberal Arts). It also provides the foundation of core classes needed for those planning to transfer to a four-year program to major or minor in art. Our Arts program encourages creative exploration while developing technical proficiency and a thorough understanding of art throughout history. Courses are structured to transfer. Talk to a faculty member or your advisor for more information.

What is special about this program?

Our studio courses provides hands-on instruction in small class sizes, structured for technical and conceptual exploration. Any student can enroll in an art class, regardless of intended field. Our professional faculty of practicing artists are here to support students every step of the way along their creative path. We have an active schedule of visiting artist talks throughout the year to inspire our students and connect them with professionals in the field. The Palmetto Center for the Arts houses a wonderful exhibition space that features four rotating shows from professional artists and an opportunity for students to showcase their own work in the annual juried exhibition each summer.
