Uraian Tempat

The Department of Art in Fulbright College had its beginnings in 1874, when instruction in drawing and painting was first offered at the University of Arkansas for non-degree credit. In 1885 the Board of Trustees voted to promote a program focused more on the industrial arts program by hiring an instructor of "Drawing, Designing and Book Keeping" who offered "Ladies Industrial Art Studies." By 1889 this program — and the Department of Art — were abolished by the Board. In 1894, the Art Department was re-established by the Board of Trustees, and the University catalog stated that in the art program, "Patience and perseverance, rather than talent, are the qualifications essential to success." The department prospered. In 1897 a four-year, non-degree course of study in art was introduced offering "charcoal, crayon, pencil, pen and ink drawing, oil, watercolor, pastel, tapestry and china painting." Also offered were "special classes in industrial designing and illustrating, ornamental and decorative work." Between 1903 and 1913, the Conservatory of Music and Arts was established as a more professionally oriented school on the order of similar specialized schools in the country, and offered a four-year program of study leading to a diploma, but not a college degree. The Conservatory was abolished with the organization of the College of Arts and Sciences in 1913. At that time, the Art Department, along with Music and Expression (a forerunner to Drama), became part of the Department of Fine Arts.
