Position at The Southwest School of Art
POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT - FOUNDING ACADEMIC DEAN
The Southwest School of Art, a private institution located on a scenic and historic, 5 acre campus in downtown San Antonio, Texas, seeks nominations and applications for the position of Academic Dean.
In 2013, the first cohort of a new Bachelor of Fine Arts degree program will begin classes at the Southwest School of Art.

State of the art instruction studios include: ceramics, book arts, drawing and painting, printmaking, fabric design, papermaking, 3-D, photography and digital media, metals, and fibers. Full-time and part-time faculty members are practicing artists who are active in their respective fields, locally, regionally, and nationally.

Financially stable and with dependable support from individuals and foundations, the Southwest School of Art has earned a reputation for organizational and programmatic excellence.
The Southwest School of Art is a dynamic participant in the economic and cultural vitality of San Antonio, a city of 1.2 million with a distinctive and energetic art scene. With the addition of the BFA program, the Southwest School of Art will become the only independent college of art in Texas.
