Additionally, the school’s positioning as part of the College of Arts and Sciences allows us to equip graduates with the insights and values of a classical liberal arts education.

Join school faculty, students, and fellow graduates of the merged Departments of Studio Art and Apparel Merchandising and Interior Design to celebrate the school during homecoming weekend. Tour the school’s newest building, Kirkwood Hall, which houses apparel merchandising, and comprehensive, fashion, and interior design. You’ll have the opportunity to connect with current students and see their studio spaces and recent work. Evening events include a lecture from McKinney Visiting Artist Emmet Gowin, and the opening reception of two exhibitions in the Grunwald Gallery: A Shared Elegy and Kinship. You may also join in the Homecoming Parade & Pep Rally, and additional activities.

This event is co-hosted by School of Art, Architecture + Design student organizations.
