The Arts at Belhaven

"Because of my degree from Belhaven University I will have a greater, more well-rounded knowledge of dance and how to use the creative gifts God has given me to glorify Him. My BFA degree in Dance will also show the time and effort I have poured into fine-tuning my technique, artistry, and choreographic skills. In addition, this degree will enable me to view the world through a Christian perspective and inspire me to seek ways to make God known among our neighbors and the nations."

"I'm excited to graduate with a B.F.A in Graphic Design and a B.A. in Music. I plan to pursue music education and freelance art and design work after graduating. My drawings and sculpture are built from layers of intuitive marks and forms."

This department taught me strength and determination, and that all it takes is drive and passion to reach your goals."

"I've always loved arts and crafts and decided to study Graphic Design at a community college. After graduating from there, I decided to continue my studies at Belhaven University. I can't wait to graduate with a B.F.A. in Graphic Design. I hope to travel and network with other artists after I graduate before returning home to bring resources and opportunities to my community."
