The Art curriculum has been revised to reflect the rapid growth of career opportunities in the Design and Visual Communication fields. Enrolling in the courses offered by the Art Department, students can create a specific concentration and develop a college entry portfolio. Students may choose courses with concentrations in: Fine Arts and Design, or Commercial, Digital Arts or both. In all courses students will maintain a portfolio of all project work which will become the property of the student upon completion of each course. A rubric has been developed by the art department that sights key areas of project objectives.
