CPCC Visual Arts Faculty Build Relationships at UNC-G Foundations Summit

The entire CPCC Visual Arts Department attended a two-day Foundations Summit hosted by University of North Carolina-Greensboro in September. Seven UNC 4-year art department faculty met with numerous community college art faculty to discuss ways to facilitate the pathway for transfer students. Faculty participated in sessions on the following topics:

  • Art 121 (Design I)
  • Art 122 (Design II)
  • Art 131 (Drawing I)
  • Art 114 (Art History Survey I)
  • Art 115 (Art History Survey II)
  • Art 117 (Computer Art)
  • Review of 4 year institution portfolio requirements and procedures

    Faculty also enjoyed a guided tour of Weatherspoon Art Museum, located adjacent to Gatewood Art Building on the campus of UNC-G.
