Art
The Art programs are directed toward individual artistic development with an emphasis on developing the student’s ability to create independent artistic works, as well as the ability to gain an enhanced comprehension, appreciation and personal enjoyment of artworks. There are studio courses from beginning to intermediate levels, and the art appreciation and art history courses present a survey of artistic creations. Students have the opportunity to develop artistic expertise through individual exploration and an exploration of a rich range of gallery exhibits, participating in possible field trips to regional exhibits, guest lectures, portfolio presentations, and student shows.
