Visual Arts

The department of visual arts takes students on quarterly trips to museums in the San Francisco Bay Area, as well as tours of companies such as YouTube and Pinterest, field trips to historic design spots such as the Eames Ranch and M&H Type, as well as longer trips to events such as Sundance Film Festival.

Visual Arts grads have gone on to work with many prestigious companies, such as Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks Animation, Apple, Netflix, Lucasfilm, Airbnb, and Martha Stewart Living. There are also many alumni working for large ministries like 3ABN, Amazing Facts, and Maranatha Volunteers International, and, of course, Pacific Union College.

Sam Delaware, photography major, was named Youth Photographer of the Year in the 2016 Sony World Photography Awards, the largest and most comprehensive photography competition in existence.
