Why study Art?

Creative. Passionate. Engaging.

A student of the arts doesn’t choose it—the art chooses the student. You are driven to create. Your greatest accomplishments are measured by the results of your dreams and your hands. You are called to art.

The ETSU Department of Art & Design offers you many opportunities to refine your talent and find your voice. Different specialties offer you different options professionally. Many of our students go on to be independent artists showing their work in galleries and regional and national art shows. Those who choose graphic design or new media find careers in advertising agencies, web design firms, and other communication fields. You may decide to continue your studies enabling you to teach others and pass along your creative spirit or build a career as a museum curator.

The world of art is a mirror reflecting society’s values and beliefs in concise and vivid images. It delivers both the beauty and the horror of the moment and makes us pause and take note. ETSU will help you define success.
