Liberal Studies Art - Southern Maine Community College

Liberal Studies Art from Southern Maine Community College is a Campus Associate Study of Art degree that prepares you for a Art and Design career. The Liberal Studies: Art concentration is designed to prepare students for a career in the arts. Working in stateof- the-art studio facilities and guided by practicing professional art faculty, graduates from the program can go on to careers in studio art, illustration, graphic design, fashion, art education, arts advocacy and curatorial work in galleries and museums. The foundation year is a hands-on studio program with a basis in traditional foundation courses of still-life and figure drawing, two-dimensional design, three-dimensional design and art history, in addition to Liberal Arts core courses. The program helps students to develop skills in a variety of art media, while gaining a balanced education through liberal studies and art history courses. The second year focuses on studio practice in a specific media. Students enroll in a capstone course with their colleagues for group critiques, visits to museums, galleries and artist studios, presentations by guest art professionals, and the development of vital professional skills, such as portfolio presentation and small business management. In the studio, art students work closely with individual faculty advisors to develop a finished body of work for a group exhibition that culminates the program.
