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.

Students, parents and Alums Participate in Annual College Night


Senior Morgan Itterly, Kim Itterly and GA Alum Clay Kippen came back to campus to meet with students and parents about career options for young artists and the college application process.  Supported by Karen Mason, Director of College Guidance, students learned about portfolio submissions, the necessity of digital tools, and how summer programming and weekend workshops help to build skills and allow for the understanding of the culture of art in colleges and art schools.
