College of Fine Arts Self-Guided Tour

Welcome to the Richmond Center for Visual Arts! This building is one of two buildings that make up the Gwen Frostic School of Art. The first floor of the Richmond Center houses our three museum quality gallery spaces that are free to access and open to the public. Visiting artists, traveling shows, faculty and students exhibit in these spaces. The second floor houses administration offices, one of our lecture halls, and the cube, our student lounge. The third floor houses the Graphic Design Program. 

Walk down the hallway, past the Monroe-Brown Gallery entrance. Look for the walls with the University Art Collection artwork. Pass through the doors outside, up the stairs and into South Kohrman. 

This is where the majority of our studio classrooms are housed. On the first floor of South Kohrman we have Metals/Jewelry studios, Foundation Art classrooms, Art Education, Ceramics and Sculpture studios. 

Students will begin their time at Frostic with Foundation Courses. This is a series of 4 studio classes that teach the elements and principles of design, and introduce you to the facilities available to you in the school.
