Visual Arts

The activities in the art classes are designed to develop skills of perception, problem solving, understanding, and sensitivity through a variety of experiences. The aim of the art curriculum is to give the students an understanding and appreciation for the endless and constant results of artistic efforts which surround us in our daily lives. The unique character of the art curriculum provides students with an opportunity to express and nurture their creative instincts.

The visual arts department has ten labs with well-equipped spaces dedicated to photography, ceramics and sculpture, jewelry and metalwork, computer art, and drawing.
