A thorough and varied curriculum offers a solid base for careers in art education, commercial design, studio art, or graduate study. Courses in drawing, painting, water coloring, commercial art, design and color theory, ceramics, jewelry, fibers, sculpture, art history, printmaking and art education are offered.

Students make a serious commitment to their art and routinely participate in local, state, and national art competitions. Over the past ten years, Lincoln University art majors have won an average of 30 awards per year in various art competitions.

Art students will be able to take advantage of the newly-equipped computer lab with terminals for each student, a color printer, a Color One Scanner, and some of the latest software for design, illustrating, and photo imaging.
