Master of Fine Arts en Arts Visuels

Columbus College of Art & Design (CCAD) Master of Fine Arts in Visual Arts brings together accomplished makers from various disciplinary backgrounds to form a community ready to be challenged as artists, thinkers, and citizens.

We revel in the discoveries that emerge when we place illustrators, photographers, sculptors, and other creative minds alongside one another in our classes and our studios. Get ready to confront your artistic habits, assumptions, and mindsets as you productively unlearn and begin to apprehend better your work and its role in the world around us.
