EMPYREAN is an online Gallery and Discussion Forum sponsored by Warnborough College. Our mission is to provide a venue where the learners, alumni and faculty of Warnborough College can exhibit their work, and post articles and papers on issues and topics in Fine Arts and Art History. Anyone is invited to submit work for consideration. Please visit our Submissions page for guidelines.

The Gallery features works of art produced by Learners (including excerpts from MFA Exhibits and Doctoral Projects) as well as works by Faculty and Warnborough Alumni. The Forum features writings focused on the broad realms of Art and Art History--from written works developed from art historical perspectives, to critiques of contemporary works of art. This page includes excerpts from scholarly papers, articles, editorials and more.
