A new home for studio arts

By: Kaitlyn Boxley, Contributor

Anyone who has taken a studio arts course recently has shared the embarrassing experience of trudging to the basement of Science Hall, limbs stocked to the brim with the bits and pieces of their projects, possibly tripping over themselves because they cannot see over their materials. All of this, only to need to squeeze them between what could be miscellaneous objects for Sculpture I or actual equipment for the physics labs. 

Now, students need only worry about tripping up the stairs instead of down them, because the classroom dedicated to studio arts (and only studio arts) has been relocated to Horan-O’Donnell room 201! Every shelf is stocked with material for drawing, painting, sculpture and printmaking! The room will be used for studio arts courses as well as a space for the Art Club on campus.

This Sunday, Oct. 26, there will be a general body meeting for the Art Club, which is a great opportunity to go and see the new space. Registration for spring 2026 is coming up, so be sure to consider adding a studio arts course to your schedule!
