Course Descriptions

FVL's Fine Arts Department offers opportunities for students to cultivate their creativity in a number of areas:

Art

Drawing, painting, and sculpting are a few of the ways in which FVL arts students are encouraged to explore, develop, and refine their God-given artistic talents and abilities. The art program assists students in developing visual expression and thought, helps to increase awareness of and appreciation for art, and serves as a foundation for further study in the field of art.

Choir

FVL offers three curricular choirs that meet daily. Women's Choir and Men's Choir are offered as a beginning experience in choral performance, focusing on the basic essentials of music and singing. The A Cappella Choir is a mixed (male and female) choir that emphasizes further development of vocal and choral techniques by preparing and performing medium to advanced choral literature, both sacred and secular. Participation is by audition. 

Band

The heart of the instrumental music program at FVL is the Symphonic Band, a curricular band which rehearses daily. The Symphonic Band studies medium to advanced band literature and ensemble techniques, and also performs in several concerts each year.  All members of the Symphonic Band are also in the FVL Marching Band and Pep Band.
