Westminster School

Westminster School's Visual and Performing Arts program emphasizes the development of good work habits and motivation to create cohesive bodies of work. Students gain an understanding of past traditions and current methods, with co-curricular connections strengthening the act of making art. The faculty, who are practicing artists, believe in providing a multi-year perspective in the arts experience for students, with daily classes enhanced by trips to local area performances, galleries, and museums. Additionally, professional artists come to campus to interact with students in workshops, lectures, and performances. Westminster School is a small, private boarding and day school located in Simsbury, Connecticut, providing education to more than 350 students in grades nine through 12.
