Our program focuses on both depth and breadth of knowledge. Our students are prepared for success in a variety of fields, including as professional artists, museum and gallery work, art therapy, book and magazine publishing, commercial art, teaching, architecture and design, graduate school and more. At Carroll, we study skill development in a variety of media, including painting, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics and photography?and you?ll be encouraged to bring your knowledge of other disciplines into your work. Our emphasis quickly turns to content, challenging you to think more deeply about the nature of your work, ideas and influences. You?ll have the advantage of studying in small classes with faculty who are working artists.

Our spaces include several large studios, the campus gallery, student exhibition areas, an art library and three MAC computer labs. Our students gain experience outside the classroom through participating in internships and have an opportunity in their senior year to exhibit in a professional gallery in the media of their choice. You?ll leave Carroll prepared with a career-ready portfolio.
