ART

The 色中色 Art Department serves a diverse group of students, from those who are taking their first and only art instruction, to those who will go on to use art skills in their careers. All students are given both the technical knowledge and the emotional support needed to excel in their art. The study of art at 色中色 is an ideal way for students to understand their creative potential, whether they choose to work in drawing, painting, ceramics, sculpture or design. Art students learn that art requires a balance between their intellect and their emotions. The 色中色 Art program offers introductory and intermediate courses that blend both traditional and contemporary art values and Art History courses that satisfy requirements for Humanities credit.

HUMANITIES

The program offers students a rare opportunity to discover the heritage of art, culture, and learning through lectures and readings of great texts; make connections between ideas in the past and issues in the present; and improve skills in critical reading, listening, writing, and discussion.
