Greetings to All Lake Forest Parents,

Please join us for a special event Thursday, November 19th from 5pm to 7pm!  Don't miss your chance to make a clay wham dish with your child!  All the fun will take place in the Art Lab room 69.  We will enjoy juice and cookies to start, then we move right into the sculpting.  Hope to see you there!  Please contact Ms. Saxon if you have any questions.

Thank you all for your support!

 

The visual arts program at Lake Forest offers students instruction in drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, printmaking, computer imaging, and combined media.  Students explore art from ancient times to the present day covering different types of art from around the world.

 

The overall focus of the program is to inspire creativity and inventiveness in students.   Class discussions and projects are supplemented by visits to area museums including the Cummer Museum and Gardens and the Jacksonville Museum of Contemporary Art.  Students enjoy opportunities throughout the year to exhibit their art at school and out in the community.

 

Fourth and fifth grade students may audition for the Magnet art class.  These advanced classes require a deep commitment from the student.  During the year, these students benefit from trips to Douglas Anderson High School of the Arts and La Villa Middle School of the Arts.
