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 and English Faculty Exhibit
In the Honors Art Gallery through the end of the school year, students can see the collaborative creative efforts of the English and Visual Arts faculty. Creative
collaboration has been
around for hundreds of years, but it is enjoying a resurgence in the contemporary arts scene. Spearheaded by Stephanie McConnell and David Love, the English faculty created writings
and the arts faculty of the upper and lower school, responded to them.
The result of their efforts range from printmaking to drawing, sculpture to mixed mixed media collage.
