Jefferson College (Arts and Science Education Department)

The Arts and Science Education Department is committed to advancing new initiatives while continuing long-standing traditions. The department strives to offer a sound curriculum and enriching learning opportunities for students. In the classroom as well as outside the classroom, the faculty provides learning opportunities through the arts, travel and multicultural experiences, community involvement, and cross-curricular experiences.


Art

The Art Department provides students with an excellent foundation for a lifelong career in the visual arts. Former art department students have transferred to the Columbus College of Art and Design, Washington University School of Art, Columbia College in Chicago, the Kansas City Art Institute, and the University of Missouri, as both studio and art history majors, many with outstanding scholarship awards.

The art curriculum offers a broad range of classes in both two- and three-dimensional art forms, including Design, Drawing, Life Drawing, Printmaking, Ceramics, Digital Photography, Graphic Design and Painting in a variety of media. Lecture courses include Survey of Art History I and II, as well as Art Appreciation. Both studio and lecture courses are open to art majors and non-majors alike.

The Art Department regularly sponsors exhibits by nationally recognized artists, in addition to hosting annual student exhibitions. Students participate in the preparation of these exhibits, gaining valuable experience. Additionally, students have been selected to exhibit with a St. Louis gallery as they advance through the program. Annually, students in the art department travel to see major exhibitions and tour respected art schools in the country.

Possible careers in art include illustrator, graphic designer, painter, photographer, printmaker, art teacher, product designer, museum curator, art dealer, exhibition preparation, advertising agency director, and calligrapher, among many other opportunities.


Music

The Music Department has an excellent track record in preparing musicians for study at four-year colleges and universities and respected music conservatories across the country.

The music curriculum includes a combination of method and lecture courses, as well as theory and performance opportunities. Methods courses introduce the fundamental music techniques and skills required for the music major. These classes include Class Percussion, Class Piano, and Class Voice. Special music seminars, workshops, and juries often afford additional opportunities for learning.

Performance opportunities will be available from day one! Jefferson College provides a variety of performance group and solo opportunities for the music major and non-major.
