Art and Design Department

Art life at Bluefield College includes a variety of activities. Opportunities for students include visiting artist workshops, field trips to area museums and galleries (including Wash D.C.), an Art Club for camaraderie among majors and minors, and a Fine Arts Community School where students can teach area youth and adults. Students also exhibit their work in Lansdell Hall each semester, and art majors help design several on campus publications including our web page.

The Art and Design Department is housed in the Donald and Maria Cox Visual Arts Building, which opened in the fall of 2000. This art complex tripled our studio space and is a great environment to create art.
