Bring your creative vision to life. As an art major at Cornish, you’ll build your studio practice by honing your craft in a specific medium or by exploring all of Cornish’s media labs. Develop your technical skills and find inspiration all around in the vibrant, innovative city of Seattle.
Focus on one or a range of mediums including drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, and digital media.
