Seek Creative Experiences

Students are encouraged to connect with local artists and creative outlets within their community.

Cultivate Art Literacy

Personal Connections to Art

Students are empowered to make art at home in their free time and get creative with materials.

Sparking Creativity

Connecting imagination and personal growth. Students keep visual journals of their experiences, travel, and feelings.
