The Arts

The Long Island Art Club enriches the student body through art. The club includes all students, regardless of artistic ability.

St. Joseph's University Art Club is dedicated to Creativity, Education and Charitable Giving. The Art Club offers an abundance of activities, events and workshops on and off campus that allow students to participate in diverse artistic projects and learning experiences. Established artists are invited to campus regularly to offer workshops on such processes as acrylic poured painting, hot glass fusing, paper marbling and figure drawing with a live model. Occasional field trips and films are scheduled to promote art experiences and education.

As part of our mission is to give back to the community, the Art Club holds an annual charity event craft’s sale. Some of the work created in the workshops are donated and sold to raise money for charitable organizations, including Materials for the Arts and Splashes of Hope. As club members, you can help us continue to grow and develop new and exciting programming for the St. Joseph's University community, while having fun with fellow creative and curious students.

Book Club is exciting, welcoming, and relaxing. The goal of the club is to create an SJNY community where members can make new friends, have time to relax during their busy semester, partake in a hobby, or find a new hobby, and give back to the community. This club is not just about reading, but supporting the SJNY community and outside communities.

The SJNY Eaglettes is an all-inclusive club that is student run. It provides a safe and fun atmosphere with the opportunity for students to dance whether or not they have experience. This is a great way for students regardless of age, race, size or experience to get involved on campus while continuing their passion for dance, or learning it. This club includes one showcase per semester. We incorporate a variety of dance styles such as jazz, pom, hip-hop and kick. We do many fundraisers as well as fundraise for our philanthropy, Dancing Dreams. 

The Dancing Dreams charity gives opportunities for dance and performances brought to children ages three to twenty one with medical and physical challenges. This charity brings awareness and education to the community with children who have disabilities. We chose this charity because we support the gift of sharing dance with others, especially those who need spirit and love. 

"Life is a song, love is the music."
