Campus & Facilities

Delaware College of Art and Design
Located in an Art Deco building that has been transformed into a state-of-the-art educational facility, DCAD offers technologically-advanced computer imaging and graphics labs, darkrooms and photography studios that reflect the latest developments in these fields, while painting, drawing and design studios, bathed in natural light, merge the traditional with the modern.

TONI & STUART B. YOUNG GALLERY
The first floor of the building is occupied by the Toni & Stuart B. Young Gallery featuring floor to ceiling windows and 5,000 square-feet of exhibition space. Students experience original works of art that supplement and enrich their studio curriculum. In addition to regular shows of student and faculty work, DCAD mounts curated exhibits featuring works of regional and national significance that draw large and diverse audiences from the surrounding community and region.

EDGAR A. THRONSON LIBRARY
The Edgar A. Thronson Library is a state-of-the-art library with more than 13,000 books, videos, sound files, digital images, electronic resources, as well as subscriptions to art and design periodicals. Materials in the collection are selected primarily for their ability to support and supplement the curriculum’s intellectual and artistic goals, with particularly strong collections in the college’s six majors.

THE SAVILLE
Directly across the street, sits The Saville, DCAD’s on-campus housing. The Saville offers DCAD students the convenience of a central location in a spacious, comfortable residence hall at reasonable rates. Each unit in The Saville is unique; some are duplexes, while others offer majestic views up and down either historic Market Street or bustling King Street.

TATIANA COPELAND STUDENT CENTER
The first floor of The Saville features the ultramodern Tatiana Copeland Student Center, a gathering spot offering game tables, study nooks, wireless internet, snack machines and a general hang-out for students to build and foster life-long friendships. Students can find a wide range of activities in the Student Center from music performances to poetry readings to study groups. The DCAD Bookstore can also be found in there.
