At Concord Academy, creativity is the cornerstone of our curriculum. We foster students’ distinct voices in the visual and performing arts through our devoted faculty and diverse offerings. We are committed to challenging and expanding students’ understanding of themselves and the world through purposeful collaboration and creative engagement.
The arts encourage us to question, engage with, and understand the world from different perspectives. That’s why we consider the arts to be an academic discipline. In our classes, we blend skills development with the freedom to explore and express ideas. Our quality of instruction and resources, breadth of offerings, and opportunities for interdisciplinary study are nearly unmatched among secondary schools.
Our dedicated arts faculty, all accomplished arts professionals, bring a wealth of experience and passion to every lesson. Inspired by our students’ intelligence and drive, we tailor our teaching to their talents, ensuring that each individual receives the support they need to flourish. Our state-of-the-art Math and Arts Center, Dance Studio, and soon-to-be-opened Centennial Arts Center provide spaces for process, presentation, and performance. Whatever your passion, here you’ll find a nurturing environment where creativity flourishes and dreams take flight.
Student Spotlight
My favorite part about the art programs at Concord Academy is my ability to explore my passions. From improv to drawing to ceramics, CA has allowed me to develop my sense of who I am as a performer and an artist. The teachers provide unparalleled instruction and encouragement.
Since the community is so tight-knit, collaboration is inevitable. There are so many artistic endeavors happening all the time, it makes CA a wonderful place to be a creative person.
