Visual Arts

Exploring Identity Through Innovation

The Upper School visual arts program focuses on individual skill development. All classes encourage personal expression, imagination, and conceptual thinking. As students grow in practical ability and theoretical understanding, they gain a deeper appreciation for the role of visual arts in society.

Courses in computer graphics introduce students to digital imaging programs including the Adobe Creative Suite. The computer serves as a digital darkroom, design platform, and publication layout tool. The goal is to build students’ confidence in their creative abilities and to encourage exploration of new technologies.
