The Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts is a unique collaboration in architecture, art and design education, dedicated to excellence in learning, creative activity, research and exhibition.
The Future of Art and Architecture Education
The birth of a new academic unit is both inspiring and challenging. Uniting Art, Architecture and the Museum under the structure of the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts allows us to envision ambitious programmatic aspirations for the next decade. Given the caliber of our academic programs, faculty, new facilities, and the renown of the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum’s collections, we are compelled to develop programs and initiatives that will distinguish the Sam Fox School and Washington University in St. Louis in the fields of art, architecture and design education, nationally and internationally.
The unique structure of the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts allows us to build on the strengths of each unit and draw on our combined energies and the resources of Washington University, to chart innovative directions, create new knowledge, advance the theory and practice of our fields, and address the social and environmental challenges of our time.
