Dickinson College Arts This page is dedicated to the programming for Dickinson College's Art and Art History Department.

Art stands at the intersection of culture, politics, religion and philosophy, making it an ideal place from which to understand the liberal arts and the world at large. At Dickinson, the Department of Art & Art History offers students two tracks for study: studio art and art history. Both concentrations foster rigorous, critical investigation through active processes of learning in which students

connect historical discourse with an engagement of art from multiple contemporary perspectives. The senior year capstone experience allows studio and art history majors to pursue intensive, original research in their respective concentrations. Senior studio majors, benefiting from individual studio spaces, each create a body of work for an exhibition in The Trout Gallery accompanied by a museum catalog they create. Senior art history majors undertake advanced scholarly research in co-curating and producing a published museum catalog for an exhibition in the Trout Gallery drawn from works in the college's permanent collection or from work lent by established galleries and museums.

This summer Hannah Adler ‘26 completed a studio internship in the ceramics studio at Dickinson College (Dickinson College ). Her main project was learning about glaze chemistry and formulation to develop a selection of 12 glazes for the ceramics studio. The new studio glazes were formed in response to mine closures and student interest in a variety of color options.

Additionally Hannah worked on her creative projects and has a pop-up exhibition in the Goodyear Gallery with an opening today (August 17 at noon)!

If you are around Carlisle, we hope you can come visit and see her exhibition “Testing”

Thank you Hannah for the glaze research you have conducted this summer and the new test tile wall that will be shared with the community here in the Dickinson ceramic studio!
