Visual Arts at Pius XI

We are eager to help students develop one of the most marketable of all skills - CREATIVITY.  Our nationally-recognized visual arts program is not just for artists. It is for students who choose to pursue and develop fluency, originality, innovation and elaboration.
​
Through a sequential course curriculum over 4 years, Pius XI provides students a unique opportunity to develop their best creative selves.  The lateral thinking skills developed through our program can be applied to any subject area. Companies, colleges and universities are looking for creative problem solvers and students whose work reflects depth, focus and mastery.  An art portfolio enhances any college application!

No experience is required.  We teach skills and cultivate talent.
