DescriptionYou'll explore art history, drawing, printmaking, painting and other artistic media to understand the fundamental principles of visual culture. From the history of art, spanning centuries of artistic achievement, to contemporary self-expression in the studio, StFX offers you an exciting learning environment led by art historians and professional artists who help you understand and master creative techniques. Each year, hundreds of students take Art courses at StFX, developing a heightened appreciation of art and culture.

Here, you will be part of the only program in art history in Nova Scotia open to the regular student body as well as studio artists, and a broad range of courses not available elsewhere in Atlantic Canada, including Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque art. Studio courses are all taught by professional artists, several with international reputations, who have a profound working knowledge of their respective media. Both programs ensure that you benefit personally from the areas of expertise of instructors and faculty members.
