Exploratory art

This course is currently offered through Lincoln Learning Solutions.  This is an asynchronous course, which means that there are no live sessions and students work independently.  This course is available for both semesters.

Exploring Art introduces students to a variety of artistic media, techniques, and processes. Students will also be introduced to historical and traditional art forms, as well as contemporary and nontraditional approaches to making art. Students will create two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and digital artworks. Project-based activities and hands-on lessons allow students to refine their skills and apply knowledge in meaningful ways. Students are encouraged to develop a personal connection to their artworks, reflect on how the arts fit into their daily lives, and investigate the impact that the arts have on the global community. Exploring Art is designed for any student who loves to experiment and enjoys learning through creating and application. This course is meant to build a strong foundation in the visual arts and to prepare students for more specific and rigorous studies of art in the future.

This class is available in two semesters, each semester worth 1/2 credit.
