Arts

The arts are an essential academic subject at Moses Brown School because of the ways they integrate skills learned in other disciplines and bring students back, over and over again, to the essential humanity in all people—the central tenet of Quaker values.

Whether students are already highly accomplished or are trying something for the first time, Moses Brown offers an extensive range of opportunities for visual, musical, and performing artists to develop their craft and artistry.  For students who aren’t sure about stepping into something new, there is a broad base of encouragement to give it a try, and a community of friends and mentors ready to celebrate their success.

Moses Brown offers extensive opportunities for all students to build creative skills, whether they are already highly accomplished visual artists, musicians, and theatre-makers, or are experiencing an art form for the first time. In our studios and on our stages, students are guided by an experienced faculty, inspired by a range of teaching artists, and supported by a community of friends. Safe spaces of belonging come into being through a shared belief in the power of creating art together, as students build connection to and understanding of how creativity fuels the light within. 

We see and celebrate the Inner Light in everyone
