We challenge students to develop and to apply their skills at a high level in the many visual arts courses. We ask each student to “see more,” to think creatively, to apply energy to expressing ideas, to grow from criticism, and to expect that virtually every piece of work will be exhibited. No student can “speak” clearly or dramatically without learning visual language. Beauty and truth are not abstractions at Milton rather the raw material for artistic expression – in the traditional forms, drawing, painting, or sculpture, or in the contemporary terms of digital photography or architectural design. Our students ask and answer important questions about themselves and their world and art is the tool that they use.
