The Art Council raises awareness of Art on campus and, in doing so, prioritizes activities that work toward sustaining a diverse and environmentally aware community. The Art Council’s primary goals: create an aesthetically stimulating environment for North employees, students, and visitors; encourage, elevate, inspire, and educate through the visual arts; complete and maintain an inventory of the art including proper attribution to artists; collect student art as well as art from professional artists; improve conservation and preservation efforts for future generations; and use the North Seattle College Art Collections to enhance the college’s core themes – Advancing Student Success, Excelling in Teaching and Learning, and Building Community
