Fine Arts

There is an artist in every student. 

The St. Francis fine arts program seeks to cultivate opportunity and guide each child to find their uniquely imaginative, creative, adventurous, and curious voice. Students study music, theatre, the visual arts, and dance, helmed by an outstanding faculty of working, teaching artists. Starting with our Primary School explorations and culminating in our Upper School intensives, students build an artistic foundation that will shape, develop, and define their critical appreciation for the arts.
