OVERVIEW   VISUAL ARTS   PERFORMING ARTS   MUSIC











Shirley Hall is home to the Photo Department where students spend many hours printing their favorite negatives. The work pictured here was produced by the more experienced students throughout the last few weeks. Images from campus, vacation, and project period are included. One of the favorite subjects are people and these portraits are impressive.


Sing, dance, act, direct, make music, build sets, design lights, sew costumes, or set up the sound system for a guest artist; Proctor Academy Performing Arts opportunities are plentiful and varied. The Meeting House Theatre is alive with the sounds of music, dance and theatre morning, noon and night with Ballet, Chorus, Instrumental Music, Dance Activity, Jazz Rock, Children’s Theatre, Drama Tech, the Fall Play, Student Run Winter Drama, and the Spring Musical.


Within every person is the natural need for musical expression. This need for music expression is a fundamental and vital part of each person. The development of musical expression is essential for the balance of the human soul.


The Arts at Proctor

The arts are a great strength at Proctor, opening new horizons for creativity to students of diverse backgrounds, experiences and skills. All around campus, the arts are integrated into everyday life. Whether through a boat building course, participation in one of the three major theatrical performances of the year or experimentation with digital multi-media students can use the arts to expand their understanding of the world around them.

The Art Department offers a wide variety of courses at both the major and skills levels in Graphic Arts, Visual Arts, Industrial Arts, and Performing Arts.
