Faculty members work closely with students to sharpen skills in drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics, and photography, and to develop a more acute sense of sight and deeper coordination of eye, hand, intuition, and mind.
Students' imaginations are enriched by art history courses that trace the evolution and context of expression. Trips to museums in nearby Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and Baltimore engage students with master works, as do the College's own extensive collections, including important holdings in Asian art. The College's 1,660-square-foot gallery is an ideal venue for students and notable professional artists.
Gettysburg studio art majors have distinguished themselves as professional painters, printmakers, sculptors, photographers, arts educators, graphic designers, industrial designers, and in a range of other careers.
