Hands In Motion.
We have a unique blend of traditional and digital media with contemporary art practices and creative problem-solving at its core.Through our Visual Arts, students are encouraged to be aware of and respond to the world around them with their own unique vision. As a result they develop the confidence to express that vision and strengthen their voice.
In a world of continual change, our visual arts education encourages students to see complex problems from multiple perspectives. Students graduate with strong critical skills, a developed aesthetic judgment, and the ability to use images and objects to communicate both the practical and the poetic.
