Set against a perfect late summer day, dry, warm and sunny, were table after table of students pitching their clubs at the opening of school activities fair. This year students can take advantage of three year long after school programs in art. Art Club sponsored by Dave Love, Sculpture Club sponsored by Sara Ritz, and Small Metals sponsored by Gabrielle Russomagno. Clubs meet on a variety of afternoons Monday- Thursday each week. Students can join at any time in the year. Most after school classes start at 3 and end at 4. The program is designed for students to be able to take one, two, or all three after school offerings.
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.
