VISUAL ARTS
Create.
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, special 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 special effects, exhibition, publishing or other creative industries.
