“Aesthetic life is not something sophisticated—that’s a humanistic lie. Aesthetic life is as integral to being human as building sandcastles on the beach and giving your children names.” - Calvin Seerveld
Visual Art at King's provide students in all programs opportunities to enrich their general education with courses in the history of visual art and design in our society, and in practical studio courses by which they can grow as visual artists. As we create, select, present, and enjoy works of visual art we do so with these purposes: to respond to God's creation (which includes human art) with thanksgiving, to interpret with Christian critical insight, and to bless others with our gifts.
