Park Tudor School - Fine Arts

Fine Arts

The arts are an integral part of the Park Tudor curriculum as an exploration of creativity and self-discovery. The Fine Arts curriculum is co-curricular, involving classroom instruction and after-school practice, rehearsals and performances. Park Tudor offers a complete program in music, theatre, dance and visual arts. Students are introduced to the arts as early as Junior Kindergarten utilizing a Suzuki violin program.

The Drama department entertains the Park Tudor community with several productions every year. The Upper School produces a fall play and a spring musical. Seventh and eighth grade students also produce a musical every spring.

Vocalists and instrumental musicians from the Lower School to the Upper School participate in the Indiana State School Music Association (ISSMA) competition each year.

The Visual Arts curriculum offers a wide range of opportunities for students to express their creativity, including drawing, painting, ceramics, photography, graphic design and printmaking.

The school also offers dance classes and private music lessons.

Famous quotes containing the words fine and/or arts:

    [I]f a Fine Lady thinks fit to giggle at Church, or a Great Beau come in drunk to a Play, either shall be sure to hear of it in my ensuing Paper: For merely as a well-bred Man, I cannot bear these Enormities.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)

    These modern ingenious sciences and arts do not affect me as those more venerable arts of hunting and fishing, and even of husbandry in its primitive and simple form; as ancient and honorable trades as the sun and moon and winds pursue, coeval with the faculties of man, and invented when these were invented. We do not know their John Gutenberg, or Richard Arkwright, though the poets would fain make them to have been gradually learned and taught.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
