Visual Arts
The Wyndcroft School's art program is designed to cultivate each student's understanding of and engagement with the world of artistic expression and creation.
Rooted in the essential elements of art, our program encourages students to build connections between their personal artistic expression, classroom curriculum, and school-wide interdisciplinary themes. From Pre-K through Grade Eight, students are inspired to explore their creativity in regular art classes, after-school lessons, and art clubs. Using a variety of mediums, our curriculum enables students to:
- Practice the elements of art and principles of design to express themselves creatively
- Learn about a diverse array of artists and art movements
- Make cross-curricular connections through art-making
- Find personal fulfillment by expressing their interests, experiences, ideas, and dreams through art
At Wyndcroft, students develop a thorough understanding of artistic techniques and media, starting with exploratory investigation in the younger grades and progressing to confident familiarity and strong competency at higher levels. As they develop their artistic voices through drawing, collage, painting, and sculpture, students make meaningful connections between their inner world and the world around them.
