Curriculum - The Arts
At BB&N, the arts are a vital component of each student's
education. Through a wide range of courses, guest
artists, and extracurricular offerings, students are
exposed to both the performing and the visual arts.
We encourage all students to get involved, to take risks,
and to discover what art making is all about. The arts
curriculum moves from technical skills in each medium
to developing an understanding of the expressive and
conceptual possibilities of art.
The goal of the program is for students to gain a greater awareness of the place
of art in human experience through the making of art.
Our location in Cambridge makes it easy for many
teachers to use the performances, the galleries and the
museums of the Greater Boston area as a springboard
for their curriculum. In addition, our special collaboration
with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, means
that all BB&N students get to know that spectacular
collection, only a ten-minute drive from our campuses.
