Anthony J. D'Angelo, the founder of Collegiate EmPowerment, is quoted as saying, "Become addicted to constant and never ending self improvement." It is in this vein of striving for "never-ending self improvement" that the CMU Art and Design Department seeks to push students in their efforts to learn and explore new ideas, materials, tools and techniques. When our students graduate they will be self-empowered life-long learners as they constantly seek to improve themselves in their artwork.
These students are the types of creative thinkers and artists that we believe will succeed as they pursue their varied careers in the visual arts. We invite you to explore some of the artwork created by students in the Art and Design Department.
