We believe the arts have the power to speak across language and culture. Creative problem solving is promoted, connecting individual ideas to larger communities. Courses explore the fundamentals of art and design, concept development, technique, and craft. Content and style are examined using history and culture as tools to discover deeper meaning. In-depth portfolio guidance is available for students who plan to apply to art schools and colleges.
All students at Besant Hill School are encouraged to participate in the Arts, regardless of experience or level. We instill confidence in students, so they can find their unique voice, and we teach how to apply this voice through vision and form.
