About Fine Arts at MC

The Maryville College Fine Arts department seeks to cultivate and enhance one’s love of art in every aspect.  We encourage diversity and creative thinking.  We aim to create an environment that lends itself to the creative flow within us all.  We are poets and singers; designers and actors; composers and players.  You will be energized and uplifted to gain new ground in your particular discipline.  You will be pushed and supported as you strive for greater goals.  You will also create  lasting impressions and pave the way for future students.  If you are ready to embrace your calling and better your craft, while reaching for excellence in your art, this is the place for you.
