Art - Fine Arts

A major is offered in Fine Arts. Minors are offered in Fine Arts and Art History. 

Franklin Pierce University is one of the few schools in the country with a glassblowing studio on campus. Glassblowing is offered as a concentration in the Fine Arts major. "The cameraderie of glassblowing can be as fulfilling as the craft itself," says Professor Jordana Korsen, who is also a well-known regional artist.

A student majoring in Fine Arts is offered historical, critical, and practical instruction. Courses in Art History consider the forms, traditions, developments, and historical context of particular works. Studio courses provide instruction in the skills required by various methods and media to create art.
