The arts are important because they provide a way for us to express ourselves, to explore the world around us, to solve problems in a unique way, and to communicate complex ideas when traditional methods fall short. The arts can also provide a way for people to relax and enjoy the act of creating and seeing. Our goal in art club is to provide a space for these things to happen – where students and staff have the opportunity to share creative ideas and experience the joy of creating. Art club meets weekly with a number of alternating focuses.
