Fine Arts Department
Hill-Murray
is widely recognized as a top provider of education in the fine arts,
offering a wide range of both fine arts academic courses and
cocurricular activities. Professional actors, musicians and artists are brought in to
share their knowledge and inspire our students. We encourage our students to
explore the arts as they seek ways to honor and glorify God. Students may choose from a broad selection of
courses in: - Art
- Band
- Choir
- Dramatic and musical theatre
Art
We have Artist-in-Residence, Pat Benincasa, who not only
teaches art but conveys to her students that art can be a vocation, a
calling. She comes from her studio in
St. Paul to teach our students each day. Her steel and glass sculptures are on display around the
country, including the Redemption Window she created for the Hill-Murray
chapel. The studio arts program lets students select courses using a
variety of media, including courses in graphic design via computer.
Band and Choir
Our talented and dedicated choir and band
directors have led their students to claim some of the highest individual and
ensemble awards. Opportunities to become involved in music are
numerous at Hill-Murray School. Students may participate or audition
for a wide range of instrumental and vocal ensembles. They also have
the opportunity to perform regularly throughout the year.
Theatre
Hill-Murray Theatre has won numerous awards for its dramatic
and musical productions and is directing by an Ivey Award-winning actor, who is
also a professional choreographer and director. Our theatre produces a Fall
play, Christmas Show, One-Act, and an annual musical.
The Fine Arts program at Hill-Murray School contributes to the development of the student as a whole person by:
- Enabling students to grow in service to community, team building, and respect and responsibility for others.
- Allowing students access to learning not available in the classroom- building life-long appreciation for the works of art, music, and theater.
- Exposing students to the experience of the arts in practice and performance as they develop skills, confidence, poise, and critical abilities.
