Artillery is a team. It’s a creative brain trust of the most dedicated art students on this campus. The goal of Artillery is to create a group of highly dedicated student artists who endeavor to cross the boundaries of what it is meant to be a professional. Each of these students have a working portfolio that demonstrates their proficiency, continued learning, thought processes, and developing professional work. Nearly all of our Artillery students will be published before they graduate from Braden River.
