Fine Arts Programming lectures and events mirror CCA’s mission to cultivate intellectual curiosity and risk-taking, collaboration and innovation, compassion and integrity. Spreading across all of our programs, there is truly an event for every students’ interests and passion. Each semester, each program coordinates various guest lectures, workshops, and exhibitions.

The Fine Arts Lecture Series is a cornerstone of CCA's vibrant campus culture, providing an exceptional platform for students to engage with eminent artists from around the world. This dynamic immersive series offers an unparalleled opportunity for students to witness the creative process, gain insights into diverse artistic perspectives, and interact with established professionals.

Fine Arts Divisional Lecture Series 2023-24

BFA Senior Thesis Conversations are live virtual events where graduating students from CCA's Textiles, Photography, Individualized Studies, Sculpture, Printmedia, Jewelry and Metal Arts, Ceramics, and Painting and Drawing programs publicly share their capstone work.

Each event features student presentations, responses from art professionals, and time for discussion. Through this online presentation we celebrate each student’s dedication to art-making during their time at CCA, and provide a way for family, friends, and the general public to connect with and celebrate student work. Events will be recorded and posted afterward, to allow for greater access. You may view our archived conversations here.
