Welcome from the Director
Welcome to the School of Art and Design at Kennesaw State University. I invite you to create your world here. With an enrollment of over 1200 students, and a nationally recognized faculty of artists, designers, art educators and scholars, we are committed to exploring the convergences of art, design, and creative inquiry. The Kennesaw State University School of Art and Design provides a rigorous education, offering a BFA degree in Digital Animation and a BFA degree in Art (concentrations in Art Education, Art History, Ceramics, Graphic Communications, Illustration, Painting and Drawing, Photography, Printmaking, Comics & Sequential Art, Sculpture, and Textile and Surface Design). An MA in Art and Design, with tracks in Art Education, Digital Animation, and Museum Studies is offered 100% online.
Our facilities provide students with state-of-the-art resources. Our new Chastain Point space houses four large drawing and painting studios and an expansive printmaking area. Five computer studios in the Visual Arts Building provide industry standard technology for our applied arts disciplines of Graphic Communications, Digital Animation, Illustration and Sequential Art. Our Textiles and Surface Design concentration is housed on the Marietta campus, with approximately 10,000 square feet of dedicated instructional space.
As a unit of the School of Art and Design, The Zuckerman Museum of Art serves as a vital academic resource and cultural focus for students, faculty, and members of the community. The ZMA presents significant works from the University’s permanent art collection and regularly exhibits contemporary works of art by local and nationally recognized artists. The Museum's Fine Arts Satellite Gallery in the Wilson Building features faculty, student and alumni exhibitions.
