Visual Arts Organizations
The Creative Arts Society (CAS) is a student club that hosts art sales and events throughout the academic year. CAS engages student artists both on and off campus. Activities ranging from museum tours and service projects to exhibiting work during Art Walk engage members in the Jacksonville arts community. CAS celebrates the arts with a blend of professional opportunities and fun artful activities.
The JU Camera Click has been in existence since 1999. It is a group of photography students, overseen by the photography professor Ginger Sheridan, who are willing to perform public service photography and organize exhibitions of members’ work both free of charge to the larger Jacksonville community. Recent shoots include the JU Faculty Recognition Dinner, The Sea of Blue Firefighters March downtown, and Timucuan Parks system. Exhibitions have recently been installed in the Howard Building on JU campus, the Broward House and Players by the Sea. The Camera Click also actively maintains a Facebook page where photographic information, exhibition opportunities, and possible jobs are posted by current students and alums.
