We believe in the power of art to ignite curiosity and wonder.
The Art and Art History Department at Macalester College is a dynamic community of artists and scholars dedicated to exploring the multiple pasts, presents, and futures of artistic expression. Situated at the intersection of the fine arts, humanities, and a liberal arts context, we foster interdisciplinary exploration, critical thinking and hands-on making. The expansive cultural and artistic legacies of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, along with the vibrant natural environments of the upper midwest, support our strong sense of interconnectedness and community. Through collaborative teaching and learning, we engage with visual culture to interpret and contribute to the growth of our multicultural and global society. Guided by a belief in the transformative power of art, we strive to inspire curiosity and inquiry while serving and connecting with students, faculty and staff, and local and regional communities.
