ART COURSE OFFERINGS
While the art curriculum provides a program designed for the college-bound art major, it also remains flexible to meet the elective needs of all students. All classes are semester classes except AP Art classes. Classes focus on studio art production. Lessons in art history, art criticism, aesthetics, art careers, studio etiquette, and technology are also integrated. Mercy High School honors the State of Michigan requirement of two semesters of visual, performing, or applied art classes.

ART STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
Throughout this class, I have gained a greater appreciation for art. I thought art was all painting and drawing, but I have learned it is more than that and now I notice art wherever I go. Olivia Collins
We did so many things I would not have considered art.... My knowledge and skills have increased tremendously, involving the computer. Miranda Konja
Creativity and innovation were incorporated throughout the entire class. Each project we worked on was based off our creativity and innovation. I don’t feel like any of my art pieces are boring because I was able to add my ideas into them. Chelsea Edwards
I have learned that there is so much more to art than just slapping some paint down or scribbling. I have learned that concentration, determination in the face of frustration, and following the design processes and your inner artistic inclinations are all part of being an artist and creating something amazing. Alana Sullivan
