| Mission | |
| School mission | Founded in 1890, the Corcoran College of Art + Design is special because it is one of America's very few examples of a 'pure' museum art school, maintaining its original relationship to one of Washington's greatest museums. Surrounded by great art and frequently by the contemporary masters whose work is regularly exhibited, the atmosphere of the College is charged by the excitement of direct contact with the world of art. Senior student thesis exhibitions are held in the Museum, which is open to visitors from every nation who can discover the talents of the College's emerging young professionals. |
