We are a unique constellation of artistic disciplines — one of only a few in the entire country devoted to three aspects of artistic practice: 1) the visual arts ranging from sculpture, painting, photography, to graphic and industrial design, to art education to art history; 2) the performing arts encompassing modern dance, classical and contemporary theatre production, and music — from our newly inaugurated program in jazz studies, to opera, to composition and to individual instrumental studies; 3) the environmental design arts-from architecture, to urban planning, to landscape architecture in which entire landscapes, neighborhoods, buildings, and cities are designed with an immediate and long-term human impact.
