The ultimate goal of the Art Club Of Southern University in New Or- leans is the promoting of culture through the Arts. We position our- selves the same as the modern artist in seeking to elevate students through art drives and to explore the possibilities of discovering new beauty. This means strife and often frustration, but also joy and release from tension. We also believe that creativity is the only road to suc- cess and that creativity in any field reconciles man with his fate and gives him a sense of dignity.
