Our mission is to instill in art students the intellectual rigor, technical and formal skills, aesthetic insight, spiritual discernment, and work ethic necessary to function as visual arts practitioners who display the mind of Christ.
Recognizing the distinctive character and heritage of Belhaven College as a Christian institution historically related to the Presbyterian church, the art/design unit fully supports the Mission of the College and endeavors in precept and practice to apply its principles to the disciplines of the visual arts, affirming Christ Jesus' Lordship over all, and the authority of the Bible as God's inspired word.
The art/design unit is in complete cooperation with the basic liberal arts foundation upon which the degree program is constructed.
It is the unit's goal, by education and example to instill in each student the intellectual rigor, technical skill, aesthetic insight, spiritual discernment, and ethic to work necessary to function as visual arts professionals who are ambassadors for Christ.
The visual arts department is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD).
