AHS Visual ARTS.....So Much More Than What You See!

Learning to Draw and Think Creatively helps prepare students for the future.
The TRUTH IS....learning to paint, alter a photograph, design a website, or design an energy efficient home requires mastering skills that are often invisible to the naked eye, but are developed through a strong visual art education.
Our Nation's Economic and Social Landscapes are changing before our eyes. Now more than ever our kids need the lessons that the visual arts teach.
