Our Facilities

The Fine Arts Building houses the main art offices as well as numerous undergraduate classrooms and specialized labs for Foundations, Photography, Ceramics, Sculpture & Electronic Art, Digital Foundations, and Digital Media.

The Carnaghi Arts Building (CAB) accommodates studio space for several departments in the College of Fine Arts, including the Department of Art, the School of Design, and the School of Theatre. This 114,000+ square foot space provides a unique and collaborative learning environment for students in all art disciplines.

CAB houses the Department of Art’s BFA and MFA student studios, where students can create work while fostering a community between the programs. MFA students have access to the photo documentation room, ceramics shop, multi-use room, woodshop, and the metal shop. This building also contains the MFA Gallery and the Phyllis Straus Gallery, built to host exhibitions that are open to the public.

The ATL building, a deconsecrated church, houses Painting and Drawing classrooms and painting faculty offices.

The Facility For Arts Research (FAR) is a venture of the Florida State University College of Fine Arts, offering space and specialized equipment for experimental printmaking, spatial audio, electronics and digital fabrication to researchers and faculty as part of a rigorous interdisciplinary investigation into art-making. Students have the opportunity to participate in special research projects through direct faculty mentorship. FAR engages and educates 21st century makers in the collaborative, cross-disciplinary experiences of contemporary arts research, supporting and promoting the integration of digital and traditional art and design methods to create unique objects that might be impossible to make in other ways.
