The M.A. in Transformative Arts (68 units) in the Department of Arts & Consciousness addresses a growing cultural imperative that art must reassume its integral position in the community. This program develops the artist's creative work with a focus on healing and personal growth. It prepares students to become facilitators of positive change in the world through art and the creative process.

This program reflects the long tradition of art and healing in most of the world's cultures - an understanding of the deep relationship between creativity, community, health, and spirit. The world of contemporary art increasingly recognizes that community and cultural interaction are essential to the creation and evaluation of artwork. Beginning with the work of the Fluxus movement in the 1960s and moving on to innumerable earth-based, community and collaborative art works, artists have strived to integrate social change and artistic expression. With this profound change in the way art is viewed comes a change in the way artists must be educated.

Transformative arts students have diverse artistic practices and levels of experience. Many have backgrounds in visual arts, but some are poets, musicians, dancers, or performance artists. Some have discovered their creative path relatively recently, while others have been practicing their art for many years. These diverse students find common ground through their investigation of the relationship between inner being and outer work. They share a focus toward service to others through artistic expression.
