True North Begins Here
Whether you are first time college parents or current college parents, we welcome you to Ohio Northern and to the Department of Art & Design. Throughout the year, there are many exciting opportunities for you and for your son/daughter. This certainly is a special community as ONU becomes a second home for your student. We invite you to the Wilson Art Center and to ONU’s campus to visit, meet new friends and attend special events. We look forward to seeing you.
Parents of first-year college students automatically receive the A&D Parents’ Newsletter. Published in the early Fall, the publication contains information about your son’s/daughter’s transition to college, events and dates, news about the department, and much more. A PDF format of the newsletter is available upon request (art@onu.edu or 419-772-2160).
We have a lot of exciting things planned for you and for your son/daughter. Our goal is to provide an exceptional learning experience for all of our students. Please continue to browse our website for additional information about A&D events and our programs.
