Do you enjoy working with people—children, adolescents, adults? Do you think you are now or could become a leader? Are you convinced of the importance of creative experience in the healthy development of all human beings? Do you personally enjoy the challenges of visual expression?

If you answered "yes" to the above questions you have the potential to become an outstanding art teacher. The ART EDUCATION program at Seton Hill combines a strong liberal arts education with state-of-the-art art teacher preparation.

Excellent studio instruction, comprehensive art history instruction, exposure to studies in criticism and aesthetics, combined with opportunities to work with children and adolescents, will have you graduating from Seton Hill College as an exceptionally competent art educator.
