Welcome to the School of Graphic Arts
![]()
First envisioned in 1873 by John H Mills, Superintendent of what was then referred to as Oxford Orphan Asylum, the School of Graphic Arts has grown over the years into a vibrant and integral part of campus life as well as an important partner to the local business community.
Since its beginning over 130 years ago many students have learned the valuable trade which carried them into adulthood. Even more important than that was the work ethic learned here that has followed them every step of their lives whether they continued with their printing careers or not.
We are currently working with VGCC and Granville County Schools to form a public-private partnership with plans to utilize our facility to create a graphics training program for local youth. We hope to begin instruction in the Fall of 2008.
An equally important part of our mission is our partnership with the businesses in our local community as well as many others statewide. Our very existence is dependent on their trust in our staff to provide them with quality printed items at affordable prices.
We invite you to visit us during your visit to Oxford, and get a chance to meet our staff and students. We think you will be impressed with our Mission of education, quality printing, service, and all that we are doing to fulfill it.
