Visual Arts
“Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.”
-Thomas Merton
Arts education at Horizons K-8 is a joyful way to understand the world and self with greater complexity and sophistication. Through arts education, students develop their imaginations as they learn to communicate through complex symbols. They build expressiveness, creative skills, teamwork skills, and self-esteem while developing critical and abstract thinking, observation, innovation, analytical skills, and information retention.
