Visual and Performing Arts
Our vibrant classes build the skills and techniques necessary to become an expressive and curious artist and performer. A student striving to engage in the visual arts, perform on stage, or pick up an instrument for the first time, will find a complement of coursework that will build their craft through an iterative framework. Our students receive exposure to the larger arts community by exposing them to visiting artists in the Hunter Gallery, museum trips, theater productions, and musical performances. It is our intent to provide our students with an understanding of the arts impact on culture, our economy, health and well being, society and education.
