Visual Arts

Drew’s visual arts program enhances the creativity, talent and technique of our students with a combination of hands-on studio time, art theory, and critiques.  Extensive offerings span all skill levels, from introductory Drawing and Design to AP Art, and many different media including Drawing, Painting, Printmaking, Photography, Graphic Design, Digital Media, Cartooning, Computer Animation and Sculpture.  The full-time art faculty have graduate degrees in their focus and are professional artists, whose work is shown in galleries and museums.

In November 2006, a showing of drawings, paintings, prints and photographs by over 50 Drew students and art department faculty opened as the focus of a three-month gallery show in a downtown San Francisco gallery at 901 Market Street. Also of particular note is the inclusion of monotypes by art faculty member Alexandra Blum in the de Young museum’s Chicano Visions art exhibit in the Fall of 2006.
