Students gain the knowledge and experience needed to pursue a job after graduation. An Elizabethtown Art degree prepares students for graduate studies in studio art, art history, museum studies, and art therapy. After completion of the Art degree, students will have created a strong portfolio and gained an invaluable liberal arts education through the core curriculum and other elective course work. Art majors have the opportunity to display their work in one of the College's three galleries. The on-campus galleries allow students to do an internship which will enable students to learn the operations of an art gallery.
Students have direct access to amateur and professional exhibitions throughout the year.
