The School of Art & Design offers programs to prepare you for a career in visual art. Our graduates have gone on to careers in the arts and arts related fields as exhibiting artists, graphic designers, art historians, art educators, and video producers.

Our galleries exhibit contemporary work from professional artists, SOAD students, alumni, and more. Galleries are open 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and are free and open to all. Join us for an exhibition, opening reception, or book the galleries for your special event, lecture, or program.
