Welcome to Visual ART MAGNET Grade 8
The Visual Arts Magnet provides a stimulating opportunity for students to experience the arts. Concepts and skills are developed through a performance–based program. Students are encouraged to take risks and are challenged to problem-solve through a variety of art media and experiences working individually and in groups. Students will explore drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, and ceramics. Digital photography and computer graphics will be infused throughout the curriculum. Appreciation, aesthetics and criticism of the art-making process and product are emphasized throughout the program. Students are expected to keep a sketchbook journal and a portfolio of work in order to set goals and recognize their growth and potential. Most importantly, they should have a passion for creating and expressing themselves within the visual arts. Students have the opportunity to earn the high school fundamentals credit upon successful completion of their portfolio requirements and passing the mid-term and final exams.
