Arts is a pillar of our school's program. Our boys learn to appreciate beauty in its many forms and to critically determine aesthetic value. This starts in the youngest grades, and is widely evident throughout our art program.
The Lower School Winter Art Show is currently showcasing our young boys' creative work in fine art, pottery, and wood shop.
Their works are often related to studies in other subjects; third graders create covered wagons while they are learning about westward expansion, and Kindergartners make penguins in pottery after learning about them in class.
Guided by their talented teachers Ms. Boccella, Ms. Fidler, Ms. Frassinelli, Ms. Mendez, and Mr. Kessler, the boys learn the tools, techniques and theory of art, are inspired by
masters like Miro, Klee and Matisse, and encouraged to be creative and keen observers of the world around them.
