The arts program at Berwick Academy comprises a variety of meaningful experiences and opportunities in both “performance and exhibition.” All students are encouraged to participate, no matter their skill level, because knowledge of the arts is beneficial to the whole child and requires taking healthy risks. Their hard work culminates in music recitals and art exhibitions for family and friends to enjoy on campus, as well as at local, state, and national levels to enhance the personal experience and bring an appreciation for national recognition of the Berwick community.


We are proud of our arts program’s integration of the arts with core studies whenever possible. For example, as students are studying South American tribes in seventh grade humanities class, they are creating original tribe masks in art class. We find that this integration enhances creativity, reinforces the subject matter and generates more affection for what is learned. One of our fundamental educational goals at Berwick is helping students to draw meaningful connections and insights, and artistic expression is a catalyst for this worthy goal.
