The Alta Ham Fine Arts Building (HFA) is the primary home of the Department of Art, and houses both the main department office, drawing and foundations classrooms, black and white photo facilities, and faculty offices. HFA also houses the campus’ largest dedicated art gallery, the Donna Beam Gallery of Fine Art. HFA is located just off of Maryland Parkway, on the northeast corner of the campus.

Completed in 1958, the second-oldest building on campus has been the proud home of the department’s programs for decades. In addition to classrooms and studio space for graduate and BFA students, Grant Hall also houses the department’s computer lab in GRA 246. Grant Hall is also home to the Grant Hall Gallery.

In 2010, Grant Hall is slated to be replaced as part of the preliminary UNLV master plan for Maryland Parkway. To learn more about the current plan as it develops, visit the Midtown UNLV site.
