The visual arts play a significant role in human civilization–as a form of personal and cultural expression, entertainment, historical documentation and information-sharing.
Cal Lutheran’s Department of Visual Arts celebrates the variety of forms and approaches–from
the fine arts like painting, drawing and sculpture, to the digital arts like graphic
design, animation, visual effects, game design and photography. In addition to hands-on,
project-based art that nourishes self-expression and fosters the imagination, you
can study art history, art education, along with theory and design to enhance your
critical thinking in the context of the creative process.
When you study in Cal Lutheran’s Department of Visual Arts, you’ll gain skills and experiences to prepare you for visual-based occupations in education, advertising, game design, graphic design, digital visual effects, publishing and other creative industries.
