Program Description

The Visual Art Department at Germantown Academy is committed to providing a comprehensive education in the arts within the context of a liberal arts education. Our foundation and advanced curriculum is a well-rounded and versatile approach to the study and application of art. It is designed to provide a creatively stimulating education in an open environment of studio classes. Experimentation and innovation, collaboration and social responsibility are themes built into the curriculum. While these courses extend excellent opportunities for the general study of art and life-long arts advocacy, they are also designed to cultivate serious talents in the visual arts. Many of our students have gone on to prominent careers in commercial, fine, and applied arts.

Art for Human Rights at GA

GA students participated in a "chalk in" on April 18th and 19th to protest human rights violations around the globe.  In addition to their graffiti chalk event, students created a Wall of Shame highlighting the twenty five most wanted human rights violators and a QR code project allowing students to scan QRs posted around campus to find out more information about individuals and organizations leading the fight to stop human rights abuse.
