The Outsider Art Exhibit
was started to support the “external and extra artistic efforts” of GA
students. These efforts range in the form of home studio work by
students that can’t fit regular GA art courses into their schedule or
additional arts courses taken by GA art students.
We wanted to highlight these efforts to give these students a little
pat on the back and to bring into the public arena, artwork that
otherwise might not have a chance to be displayed.
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.
