Fine Art

At Concordia, we believe every child has the potential to shine through the arts.  Our fine arts program, spanning from early childhood through high school, is designed to nurture and develop each student's unique artistic talents. Starting with guided exploration in the early years, our program evolves into specialized opportunities in music, theatre, and visual arts, providing a rich, creative journey.

Nurturing Expression and Creativity

As students progress through middle and high school at Concordia, they gain greater opportunities to explore the arts, developing and honing their skills in their chosen medium. Our program offers a wealth of performance opportunities, allowing students to showcase their talents at local and international events.

These experiences not only foster a deep passion for the arts but also build confidence and practical skills in a supportive environment. Whether it's on stage, in a gallery, or behind the scenes, our students are encouraged to pursue their artistic dreams and share their creative gifts with the world.

Fine Art Curriculum

Music

Through our choral, band and strings ensembles, Concordia’s music program provides student from grade five through middle and high school tremendous opportunity to fine-tune their musical talents through master study and performance, through both curricular and co-curricular offerings. Music students also have the chance to collaborate with students and faculty from prominent schools around the world through auditioned
AMIS and APAC festivals. 

Visual Arts

The visual arts program at Concordia enriches each student’s internal artistic expression and encourages creative thinking through the development of external technical skill, process and problem solving. Within a historical and cultural context, the curriculum provides a vocabulary and set of tools to enable each student to analyze and synthesize individual thought, perception, and passion and to share the outcome with the entire community.

Theatre Arts

Performance and production are intrinsic to our theatre program and provide remarkable opportunities for leadership, collaboration and creativity. Students learn to give and take direction, design imaginative sets and costumes, and inspire audiences through gesture, movement and speech. Multiple theatrical productions are staged throughout the school year, and high school drama students have the chance to participate in the annual APAC Theatre festival.

Fine Arts classes are an integral part of each and every student’s course of study at every grade level. Whether in music, theatre or art, these courses contribute to a truly holistic education.

Not only did choir offer me valuable lessons in musicianship, artistry, and collaboration, it also gave me a family to be a part of and provided opportunities to travel and learn outside of the classroom.Harper L, Concordia Fine Arts alumna, C’ 18
