Bachelor of Fine Arts in Arts - Fibers

Colorado State University

The Fibers concentration fosters creativity and artistic expression in a wide variety of textile media. Students develop skills in visual communication as they investigate the language of textiles and the role of fibers in contemporary art and design. Undergraduate courses provide foundations in weaving and surface-design methods-including fabric printing, painting, dyeing, and embellishment. Classes also promote creative investigation of off-loom constructions, feltmaking, mixed media, and installation. Studio work is enriched with research in the collections of the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art and the Avenir Museum of Design and Merchandising. Students receive guidance in professional practices as they direct their talents toward careers in art, design, and education. CSU alumni exhibit their work regionally, nationally, and internationally teach at public and private schools, colleges, and universities and lead workshop programs throughout the U.S. Our alumni also jury and curate exhibitions, work as designers, and write for national publications. Study abroad and internship opportunities are available.
