Club Affiliates - UCI Division of Career Pathways (2024)

The mission of the Art History Undergraduate Association is to encourage undergraduates in shared interest and passion for art by connecting them to a network of faculty, alumni and students. We seek to create art-filled environments that are both engaging and relevant. A main objective for our club is to organize events throughout the academic year that will grant opportunities for students to interact with art on a more intimate level, through museum trips, games, and our annual art show. Our doors are open to anyone with even a passing interest in art, and we hope to inspire a lifelong love of art in all those we encounter by making it more accessible to the UCI community in fun, interactive ways. We hope you'll join us in exploring and embracing the world of art. In the words of Theodore Dreiser, "art is the stored honey of the human soul."
