Fine Arts Audition Opportunities
The mission of the Division of Fine Arts of Lon Morris College is to offer a well-rounded, quality fine arts education within a Christian community providing the opportunity for students to mature as artists and individuals.
The Division of Fine Arts has as its vision the aim of developing the whole person. To this end, the Division will:
1) Transmit knowledge and develop skills.
2) Prepare students for upper-level study.
3) Provide a safe environment in which the student-artist can explore and grow.
4) Provide performance and exhibition opportunities that foster the creation of an impressive and significant resume/portfolio.
5) Provide cultural opportunities for the community.
6) Produce the artists and audiences of tomorrow.
An Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree affords the student the opportunity to develop artistic skills and a broad background in the liberal arts. More in-depth study of the chosen discipline is achieved through the Associate of Fine Arts (A.F.A.) degree.
While serving God, College, Alumni, Community, and one another, the student achieves wholeness and a quality education.
