ABOUT OUR FACULTYThe Visual Arts Center of New Jersey prides itself on an excellent fac-ulty of outstanding artists and arts educators from the New York met-ropolitan area. Our instructors are graduates of highly respected art schools including Pratt, Parsons, Philadelphia College of Art, Cooper Union, CUNY, and Rutgers Mason Gross School of the Arts—just to mention a few. They are working artists with specialties in jewelry, digi-tal photography, painting, drawing, ceramics, and printmaking. Their artwork is represented in museums, galleries and corporate collections throughout the country and the world.

First and foremost, our faculty is comprised of artists who are inspired to share their knowledge and love of art with students—in other words, they are true educators who understand that visual arts can shape vision and change lives.
