Fine Arts Department
The College of the Mainland Fine Arts Department's mission is to create opportunities for students and community members to acquire skills in the areas of art, theatre and music. Classes in these areas are offered for traditional and nontraditional students who will continue their education at transfer institutions, seek personal enrichment, pursue individual expression or plan to pursue vocational opportunities in the arts.
We strive to provide our students with fundamentals on which they can build their skills and develop a greater understanding of the importance of aesthetic experiences. All instructors are first-rate artists and educators who perform and practice what they teach.
