Blue Lake's Art Program motivates students through teaching the fundamental skills and concepts used in creating visual art. Classes emphasize creativity as an integral part of the art process, regardless of the individual's level of experience.
Students also learn the importance of art as a means of personal expression.
All art majors display their work in the Art Colony Exhibit on the final Sunday of each session. Students receive five hours of instruction each day, in addition to supervised studio work time. Under the guidance of our faculty, art majors will be introduced to a variety of two and three dimensional media. Drawing and painting courses may include instruction in the use of pencil, charcoal, pastel, tempera, watercolor, acrylic, and collage. Fiber Arts classes are multifaceted, offering students a variety of instruction in the use of yarns, fabrics, and natural materials.
