Jewelry MakingWelcome to Taylor University's visual arts department. This Web site offers a brief overview of the possibilities of artistic study at Taylor University. The visual arts program at Taylor enables students to explore a large variety of studies in the realm of art from a Christian perspective and encourages critical thinking about how Christian faith is reflected in the visual arts.


Our contemporary world shares a common intellectual and physical culture that is significantly determined by the creative results of visual arts. Whether through the physical environment, information media, entertainment or consumable products, the visual and design arts influence our beliefs, choices and actions with increasing sophistication. The Taylor University art department, in conjunction with the broader liberal arts community, sees its purpose as the training of Christian professionals who are adept at reading this visual environment, and engaging it creatively and redemptively.
