Visual Arts

COCC’s Visual Arts program includes courses in art history, painting, ceramics, jewelry and metalwork, drawing, photography and more. COCC’s main art facility, Pence Hall, houses art studios fully equipped with drawing tables, easels, potter’s wheels and metalwork equipment . . . all exclusively for student use.  Students and faculty members develop extraordinary art exhibits each year.  In addition to displaying their own work, they bring artistic works from across the nation to the Gallery at the Pinckney Center.
