“I’m glad I chose to go to Chowan and become involved with the Visual Arts program. It has truly been an educational experience for me and has helped me improve not only my artistic abilities, but also my reasoning and social skills.”

“I earned an Associate Degree in Commercial Art in 1988 right here at what was then known as Chowan College, a two-year junior college. Since my decision to further my degree in art, I have enjoyed the challenge of learning a variety of new techniques and processes. I am very fortunate to have been able to study under the wonderful , talented, and highly acclaimed art professors here at Chowan University.”
