Art helps us to see, and how we see determines how we live. If you are a visually stimulated person and love to manipulate art materials to express yourself and your worldview, then think about participating in Arts Discover Day at Belhaven University.

You will have the opportunity to check out the exciting things going on with the Belhaven Art & Design Department, tour our magnificent art building, visit the exhibit in the Art Gallery, and more.
