This show features work by all Fine Arts faculty alongside select works by their students in the media areas of Drawing, Painting, Printmaking, and Sculpture. This exhibition is based on the idea that the best teachers are those who are deeply involved in pursuing a personal art form, subject, or medium. Students, in turn, grasp this passion and grow to become strong, inspired artists in their own right. This is one of the most rewarding experiences in academia. The mission of the Department of Fine Arts is to maintain an environment where artists are committed to the pursuit of teaching, research, and creative work. This faculty of professional artists provides a high-quality studio education to students at the foundation, undergraduate, and graduate levels through formal, aesthetic, technical, and intellectual training. Faculty members prepare students to become creative artists, pursue graduate study, or engage in Fine Arts-related professions through the attainment of their BFA and MFA degrees. The closing reception for the "Igniting the Passion II" exhibition will be held on Tuesday, December 8th, from 4 pm to 6 pm with artist talks at 5pm.
