艺术历史
Norell Ferguson
BA 艺术历史, 2013
Norell completed a graduate thesis, Across Traditions, about how 体系结构 and 设计 impact faith, spirituality, and interfaith relations. One of her first professional projects was to begin planning an art program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, 麻萨诸塞州.
“The Hartford Art School was instrumental in teaching me how to work hard, think critically, ask the right questions, and effectively communicate my ideas. As I grow as a 设计er, I hope to continue to explore the important role of art in 体系结构, 设计, and human wellbeing.”
