The core of the Art Department's activities are located in Kroeber Hall, which houses classrooms for painting, drawing, as well as well-equipped facilities for printmaking, metal and wood sculpture. The Worth Ryder Art Gallery, Garron Reading Room and a few graduate studios are also located here. HALL Adjacent to Kroeber hall is Wurster Hall, the site of an extensive ceramics studio and classrooms for undergraduate sculpture. Two graduate studios are located in Wurster for access to the ceramic facility. The majority of the graduate studios are located at the off-campus site of the Richmond Field Station where there are spaces for 26 individual studios and a seminar room.
Students have day access to the excellent woodworking and machine shops located there.
As mentioned above, a few on-campus studios are available for students who need to use the ceramics and metal shops. The primary seminar rooms are on campus in Kroeber Hall and at the off-campus graduate studios at Richmond Field Station. Occasionally an instructor will also hold a seminar in his or her studio. The Worth Ryder Art Gallery in Kroeber Hall is devoted almost exclusively to student exhibitions that change twice a month. Students may also sign up for the White Room in Wurster Hall, which lends itself well to short-term installations, performances, and special projects.
