Gann recognizes the exceptional role that the arts play in culture and community. A Gann arts education promotes self-actualization of the individual artist, cultivation of the creative process, and general arts literacy.
At Gann, young artists learn to take creative risks, to problem-solve, and to communicate in new ways. Music, dance, theater, and the visual arts are critical for stimulating creativity and fostering a greater sense of community — helping students deepen their self-expression and become more open to and mindful of others.
