The university's broad-based training allows our graduates to become successful in a wide variety of artistic pursuits. Our goal is to provide you with the tools necessary to pursue your artistic goals, regardless of the form those goals take. The Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center is a stunning example of the university's commitment to that ideal. Its well-equipped studio rooms are graced with high ceilings, and natural northern light is incorporated wherever possible. Artificial overhead and spot lights augment the natural light to create the best possible working conditions.
