Art

Taught and guided by professors who are also practicing artists, you’ll learn in a setting tailored to the individual at Capital. When it comes to teaching, the art faculty have a single purpose — to develop proficient and creative students in the fine arts within the scope of a liberal arts education. Throughout their time on campus, students build their portfolios and are encouraged to share their art, research, and artistic research at regional and national conferences, as well as local exhibitions.

Located on the fourth floor of The Blackmore Library at Capital University, The Schumacher Gallery offers a diverse selection of works for study and enjoyment. Student work is often featured in the semester-long exhibits and attendance is encouraged at gallery receptions, where students can meet artists and network with patrons who share an interest in their passion and enthusiasm for art. Since the Gallery's inception in 1964, hundreds of donors have provided objects of art, funds, and services to create this important cultural legacy.
