Careers in Art & Art History

With a degree in Art & Art History you can pursue a career as an artist, art historian, designer, museum curator or teacher — or continue your studies in a graduate program in studio art, art history, museum studies, or art therapy.

A recent survey undertaken by the Strategic National Arts Alumni Project (SNAAP) found that 92% of arts graduates are pursuing jobs “consistent with their educational goals” (Source: www.snaap.indiana.edu). In the Art & Art History program at LVC, we prepare our students for rewarding careers in the visual arts through a dynamic visual arts curriculum and a comprehensive liberal arts education. Our students often combine their studies in Art & Art History with programs in business, communications, and languages, resulting in graduates with broad knowledge and strong critical thinking abilities — two of the most “important skills and competencies in profession or work life,” according to SNAAP.
