Appreciating the wonder of our Creator:
Music and art were created by God as an expression of His majesty and His nature. God gave us the arts as a way to express our love and praise to Him. Salem Christian School’s Fine Arts Program has been devised with the intention of revealing to our students their unique talents and gifts in the visual and performing arts so that they can better glorify God. We believe that creation is God’s artwork; He was the first Creator (Genesis 1:1), and He has created man with the ability to produce and appreciate beauty (Genesis 1:27). The goal of our Fine Arts Program is to motivate students to reflect the creativity of God and to create for His glory. Our classes at Salem promote an understanding of aesthetics (What is art?), art criticism (How is art organized?), art history (What is man’s record of creativity?), art production, and creative expression.
