The Eastfield College Art Department.
We believe that making art makes a difference in the world around us. We can shape the culture of our future by contributing our own ideas, dreams, and visions in objects made of clay, paint, stone, paper, metal, wood, and other materials.

Our studio art program and faculty will challenge you to take chances, think critically, and create passionately. We believe in teaching. We give you the freedom to experiment with new ways of thinking and making. Our program balances theory with practice, and tradition with innovation. We offer classes in: Ceramics, Sculpture, Photography, Fibers, Jewelry, Drawing, Painting, Design, Installation, Digital Art, and Computer Graphics.

Gallery219 presents the work of outstanding fine artists from Texas and beyond and features fine art student exhibitions each semester. We involve our students in artist studio visits, special events, museum exhibitions, and community service.

We believe in art. Our reputation in the art community is based on the high quality of our faculty. Our professors hold masters degrees in fine art or art history.
