The department鈥檚 artist-in-residence program and visiting art series are made possible by the Andrew Ross Visiting Artist Legacy Fund. Andrew Ross served as an assistant professor of photography at Radford from 2014 to 2018. He was an effective and popular professor and is remembered for creating a student gallery in the McConnell Library, now called the Andrew W. Ross Student Art Gallery.

Andrew retired in 2018 after being diagnosed with ALS. He now lives in Chapel Hill, NC, but has remained an extraordinary supporter of the arts at Radford. Andrew and his parents, Coleman and Carol, established and have generously donated to the Andrew Ross Endowed Photography Scholarship and the Andrew Ross Visiting Artist Legacy Fund.

Artists-in-Residence

Each fall, a professional artist joins our department and hosts a series of workshops, lectures, and critiques. Resident artists may also share their expertise and insight by teaching courses for undergraduate and graduate students. Resident artists spend a semester developing original works of art, often inspired by local scenery and culture, and, in the spring, a solo show at the 福利导在线观看 Art Museum and an artist talk bring the residency to a celebratory close.
