"A broad education in the arts helps give children a better understanding of their world…We need students who are culturally literate as well as math and science literate."
–Paul Ostergard, Vice President, Citicorp
Welcome to the high school visual arts homepage. My name is Mrs. Marie Kriner and I currently teach visual art/ video production here at Chester Academy. Our course offerings for the 2015-2016 program are Studio in Art, Drawing and Painting,Video Production, and Portfolio Development. I have worked at Chester since 2004 and love having the opportunity to work with our students in a creative capacity.

I've attached two .pdf files which are very helpful and worth checking out if you're interested in pursuing an art career or going to college after high school to study an arts field. One .pdf is a list of colleges and their specific portfolio requirements and the other is a list of career opportunities in different arts fields.
