XAS - Xavier Art Society
Art Doesn't End When Class Does
XAS - Xavier Art Society brings together students who want to make art, experience art, and be part of Xavier's creative community.
You don't have to be an Art major. If you draw, design, photograph, paint, sculpt, animate, make things, visit museums, or simply like being around creative people, there is a place for you here.

Go See the Art.
Xavier's location puts students close to one of the region's strongest arts communities. XAS trips have included visits to museums, galleries, exhibitions, artist events, and other creative destinations throughout Cincinnati.
The group also looks beyond campus for opportunities to experience art, meet other artists, and discover the creative communities surrounding Xavier.

Run by Students. Built for Students.XAS is student-led, giving members the opportunity not only to participate but to shape what the organization becomes. Student leaders help plan events, organize activities, connect members with opportunities, and create the kind of art community they want to see at Xavier. Getting involved is also a chance to develop leadership, collaboration, communication, and event-planning experience while doing something you care about. |
Make Things Happen.
Creative Events Throughout the YearXAS gives students reasons to get out of the studio, meet new people, try new things, and make art together. Events can range from casual creative activities and workshops to museum trips, collaborative projects, campus events, and larger Xavier traditions. The goal is simple: create more opportunities for students to connect through art. |
