Art Banner

The Department of Art at Lone Star College-University Park offers a range of beginning and intermediate art courses, including Art Appreciation, Art History, Design, Drawing, Painting, and Digital Design.

Students can take art courses to be applied toward the AA in Fine Arts, to fulfill core requirements, as electives, or as Continuing Education. Courses are open to both majors and non-majors and are typically transferrable to four-year institutions.

Small classes ensure individual attention from highly qualified faculty members who are accomplished professionals in their fields.

Studio art students have the opportunity to display their artwork in juried or invitational art shows and in LSC-University Park’s Uproar Magazine each year.
