arts offerings for every student
Our department offers both the inquisitive beginner and the seasoned artist an elective that is customized to his interests. More than just a creative outlet, our lessons in art literacy encourage students to consider the broader implications of art in today's society.
除了 to the studio courses offered during the academic day in fine arts, 音乐, and digital media, we provide time for extracurricular participation in drama, 音乐 lessons and ensembles. The Ruger Fine 艺术 Center and Field 音乐 Center are accessible twenty-four hours a day and students are encouraged to take advantage of our state-of-the-art facilities during their free periods.
