Art at Dollar Bay

Dollar Bay art students encounter a multitude of media during their years as art students. They are taught to truly understand not just the beauty of art, but to appreciate the techniques and styles that have defined the history of art and culture. Students will gain experience in the following disciplines:

  • Two-dimensional drawing and painting
    Water color, tempera, acrylic, and oil paints Drawing pencils, colored pencils, charcoal, oil pastel, chalk, markers, and crayons
  • Three-dimensional and sculpture assignments
    Clay hand building and wheel throwing, wire, plaster carving and casting, collage and mixed media, paper mache, batik, sewing, weaving, canvas stretching, environmental and nature art, recycled and upcycled materials
  • Technology-based projects
    Photoshop, iMovie, Moviemaker, Blender, Google SketchUp

In recent years, the art department has continued to expand its facilities and opportunities for students as we have added elementary-friendly sinks, a kiln, pottery wheel, and Gogh Bags that allow students to check out art-based books and materials.

Elementary Art Curriculum

Elementary students receive art instruction as part of their weekly curriculum. K-6 students focus on exploration of materials through experimentation. Students also gain technical art skills as they learn to properly use, care for, and manipulate materials.

High School Art Curriculum

DB-TC offers students in grades 9-12 the opportunity to take part in our art program on an elective basis. High school art assignments allow leeway for adaption and personalization, specifically for advanced art students who move toward a modified choice-based model, offering students choices for responding to their own ideas and interests through the making of art. See the trimester schedule for specific course offerings in the visual arts department.

Open House and Art Show

Join us every spring at our annual open house and art show where we showcase K-12 student artwork. To make sure you're aware of the next open house, subscribe to our school newsletter.
