Art Program at SUNY Plattsburgh
Turn Your Skill and Knowledge of Art into a Career
If you have a deep-rooted desire to make and study art, and you want to explore that desire, our program has the faculty and the facility to give you the skills and assurance to pursue art as a career.
Achieve Your Potential with a Solid Foundation, Experience, and Involvement
Within a liberal arts college, the artist and the art historian work within a specific discipline. That discipline has its own traditions and history, its own processes, skills and vocabulary. Our program is carefully designed to give you a solid foundation, breadth of experience and depth of involvement. This program will help you achieve your potential, whether you become an artist, or an art historian.
To achieve our goal, we have created a broad and exciting curriculum and encourage the highest standards. We take seriously our responsibility for helping you identify your goals and for creating a supportive environment in which you can achieve them. We strive to nurture, nourish, and encourage your personal expression and vision, not just teach you a certain way of working.
Our Experienced Faculty Will Help You Grow
We are artists and art historians actively involved in our own creative practice, exhibitions and publications; we are equally fulfilled by helping you mature in your work, grow in self-confidence and move on to lead fulfilling lives. Our hope for you is that your years here will be a time of discovery, hard work and tremendous personal growth.
