Life without art is possible, but limited. Our purpose is to help students develop an understanding of, and an appreciation for, aesthetic values that make life a richer experience. The Arts–including theatre, visual arts, music, dance and more broadly, humanities and languagearts–have always been at the heart of an SFU education. If you leave here without a better understanding of who you are, then we have not done our job. Our Fine Arts offerings are designed to challenge what you believe to be true about yourself, and to expand these beliefs in a way that will help you to reach your fullest potential as a citizen of the world.
Those looking for an in-depth experience may want to pursue a Fine Arts minor with an emphasis on selecting music courses such as Music Fundamentals, Creative Movement & World Dance, Chorus, or Band.
