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.
PreK Students Make Sun Leaf Prints
-->
Pre-K artists experimented
with a special fabric dye that reacts to sunlight. They painted a fabric square
with Inkodye and then chose leaves to arrange on top. The sunlight turned the
fabric a bright color leaving the areas covered by leaves the white of the
fabric. The
individual fabric squares will be sewn together by parent volunteer and
quilter, Mary Walton, to create a quilt, for auction in the Germantown Academy
