Event Details

Today’s most compelling narratives often require a combination of strong literary skills and engaging visual design—skills that are increasingly valued in publishing, digital media, and the arts.

Lesley’s MFA in Visual and Literary Arts integrates creative writing and the visual arts, empowering students to craft compelling narratives that resonate across print, digital, and emerging media.

The decision to integrate Lesley’s Art & Design MFA programs stemmed from ongoing conversations with students, industry professionals, and stakeholders, all of whom emphasized the importance of developing dual expertise in both writing and visual storytelling. By uniting these disciplines, our new MFA provides students with the flexibility and breadth needed to craft powerful, resonant stories across multiple platforms and formats.
