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.

2nd Graders Making Art In Narure


2nd graders spent time collecting and arranging oak leaves from the Quad to make group fabric sun prints. It was magical to watch the clear dye turn bright blue or orange when exposed to sunlight! Our next project will be a collaboration with music and language arts and 2nd graders took autumn photos of the Preserve using their iPads to get inspiration for colors and shapes.
