At LCAD we teach process, both in the studio and in the Liberal Arts classroom. Like great artmaking, great thinking is a process that must be cultivated, expanded, and refined. Students learn that just as drawing and design skills mature with practice and reflection, so do thinking skills.

When we explore the construction of a Gothic flying buttress, read a seminal study on the biological variation in modern humans, or contemplate the meaning of life in a novel, we are not only witnessing someone else’s thinking, we are exercising our own.

And at LCAD, we will help you elevate your education and thought process to make your work exceptional
