Our students deepen their understanding of themselves and others in an increasingly visual world by observing, making, and analyzing art. Grade 9 and 10 courses introduce a variety of media and methods for visual communication, while senior courses develop independent interests. The Visual Design course supports students with post-secondary applications to art and design programs. Ridgemont grads studying and working in art and design fields return to give workshops and advise students with admission portfolios. We embrace opportunities to connect with the school and broader communities. This includes participating in art exchanges with classes outside Canada, events and workshops at school, public murals, and city wide art exhibitions, connecting to small businesses and also to our city and national galleries. Let’s create together!
