Program Information

Turn your creativity into a strong foundation for your future. SCC’s A.F.A. in Studio Art program gives students hands-on experience in the fundamentals of art and design while providing opportunities to explore a wide range of media, including drawing, painting, digital photography, sculpture, illustration, and more.

Throughout the program, students strengthen their technical skills, develop their creative voice, and build a portfolio of original artwork. The A.F.A. is designed to prepare students for successful transfer to a four-year institution where they can continue their education in art, design, or another creative field.

Students will be able to:

• Use formal artistic vocabulary to communicate the content, context, and process of their work

• Apply the techniques and processes of discovery in studio art and design

• Understand principles of artistic and design theory, demonstrating knowledge of past and present works of art from diverse methods and cultures

• Articulate a response to works in the humanities, arts, and design, based upon aesthetic standards

• Create, select, and present proficient, finished work for exhibition and evaluation purposes

• Demonstrate a strong skill base in critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, analysis, observation, and organization
