In grade 9 students are able to explore and communicate using various art forms used by Aboriginal peoples. In grades 10-12, students participate in studio work and art appreciation, translating thier vision into reality. They also develop a critical approcah to art and artistic styles, and apply their skills to new media and developing technologies.

At Madonna our visual arts department provides an innovative curriculum that incorporates a dynamic photography program.

Students utilize critical thinking skills and learned camera skills to effectively apply the creative process to produce unique and personal art. Through practice and exploration, students learn to interpret photographs using the critical analysis process which allows students to learn how to use art to interpret and relate to the world around them.
