What makes an environment conducive to artistic expression?
We believe it’s a faculty made up of highly-talented practicing artists, a curriculum rich in fine arts and liberal arts courses, a breath-taking campus, and small class size. The Nazareth Art and Design Department offers a variety of programs that take advantage of these assets.
