The sculpture program introduces and encourages exploration into many processes, materials, and contemporary concepts, using a 3-D multi-media approach.

Listed are some of the opportunities for beginning and advanced students:

Bronze and aluminum casting, using the ceramic shell mold processes.

Fabrication in steel, using MIG and TIG welding, plasma cutting, and sheet metal forming.

A well-equipped woodshop for assemblage sculpture and other projects involving wood.

A 3-D printer is also available.

These tools and processes may be used in the production of 3-D objects (both indoor and outdoor), and may also be applied to installation/environmental work.
