The Arts

The Arts program strives to enhance appreciation for the arts through experience. Whether creating a painting, a song or character, or working with local visual and performing artists, students not only become tomorrow's artists but tomorrow's arts advocates as well. By participating, students at all grade levels gain true appreciation for artistic excellence in all of its forms.

The Hilton Head Preparatory artist takes form through a wide range of opportunities within our Performing and Visual Arts Department. Challenged and mentored by talented and experienced artist-teachers in Music, Visual Art, Theatre, Film and Dance, students unleash their creative energies through a variety of artistic interpretations and media.

The Visual Arts Department consistently wins awards in regional and state competitions with work in various mediums including photography and digital photography. Music offerings include opportunities for chorus, vocal and instrumental soloists, instrumental ensembles and instruction in piano, band and string instruments. The Performing Arts Department exposes the student to many aspects of theatre, music, and film. Students take part in two major musical productions a year, video acting projects, and also work on "One Act Play" for competition. Performing Arts students actively engage in costume design and build their own costumes for productions, working alongside seasoned professionals in the theatre. Performing Ensembles include: DRUMLINE!, Prep Singers, Singing Dolphins and Prep Performing Arts Theatre Ensemble.
