Art at Davidson
Dedicated to the study, history, production and theory of art, Davidson's art department offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in either art history or studio art.
As part of the broader liberal arts curriculum, we encourage creative approaches to learning in all disciplines and between both art history and studio art. Involvement in the department may mean taking a class, pursuing a major or minor, or becoming a part of our community beyond the classroom that includes gifted professors, connected alumni and involved students.
We welcome all students to our community of artists, no matter your background or previous experience.
Explore Davidson's state-of-the-art facilities including our galleries, teaching spaces, studios, bronze foundry and sculpture lab.
In addition to connecting with faculty over office hours and department events, current art students should feel empowered to take advantage of these many resources including our honors program, research and creative work opportunities and student involvement beyond the classroom.
