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.

Senior Honors Project on Tumblr



Upper School Honors Art Seniors are in the midst of a three week intensive art project guided by GA Alum and professional designer, Clay Kippen. He has been working with our students here on campus, through online support, and through media conferencing to help seniors develop new insight into their creativity and art making in general.  Emphasizing design thinking processes, collaboration, and play, students are making art in response to one prompt per day through the month of April.

You can follow their progress online by clicking here.
