The visual arts are one of the rich sources of God-given expression and meaning in our late twentieth century world. Through a variety of historical styles and a diversity of media in the visual arts, our culture is shared, perpetuated, and remembered. As manifestations of the human spirit, these arts are visible and tactile, sometimes also audible. They make God's world uniquely present and concretely accessible to students.
At Redeemer University College, students are trained in the history of the visual arts and in the technical skills that provide a foundation for the practice of various visual arts. Students trained in the visual arts at the university have opportunities, among others, to work as practicing artists and art teachers, or to pursue further studies in art therapy, computer-based arts, and art history or aesthetics.
“At Redeemer I learned the tools to communicate and live out my faith in an academic setting, which is the field in which I wish to work.”
