The Arts
We were made by a Creator, and when we create, we reflect His nature. The Arts program at Maranatha is a vibrant celebration of that truth.
From the first stroke of a paintbrush to the final bow on stage, we invite students to explore the beauty of God’s world through music, theater, and visual arts. We believe excellence in the arts is a form of stewardship. We provide the space and resources for students to refine their craft, find their voice, and share their gifts with our community. It is a place where imagination takes flight, grounded in the One who imagined it all.
Each lower school student has an art class with a specialist once a week. These classes focus on specific art fundamentals, art history, and creating art in a process-oriented and problem-solving manner. Within the upper school, students are given opportunities to choose art electives from drawing, painting, ceramics, printmaking, sculpture, textile arts, graphic design, and photography. Students not only produce work but also analyze and evaluate art history.
