What will my child be learning in art class?
Art Education in Fulton County Schools integrates the study of art history, art criticism, aesthetics, and art production. As a subject in our schools, art education is based on the belief that looking at, talking about, and making art are processes essential to the well-educated student.
The study of art provides major opportunities to nourish high level thinking. When well taught, skills associated with artistic thinking include the ability to see clearly, analyze, reflect, make judgments, forge connections among ideas and information, and generate new ideas from diverse sources.
Will there be any special art events or activities this year?
Yes! Please check the "upcoming events" tab from time to time to see what's happening!
My child is very interested in art. How can I encourage that interest?
First and foremost, provide plenty of art supplies at home. Every child is an artist!
There are also plenty of excellent opportunities for enrichment:
- Local parks and recreation programs offer art classes
- The High Museum has great opportunities for children
- Spruill Arts Center has children's classes
- Othels Art Gallery is another option. It is a small privately owned gallery in
Alpharetta that offers small group art lessons for K-12 students after school on
Tuesdays-Thursdays with a certified art teacher.
