Arts
Dream. Experiment. Collaborate. Create. Repeat.
Do you dream of becoming a published poet? Maybe you’ve always wanted to deliver a soliloquy on stage, or mastermind the lighting and sound for a full-scale musical production, or have your artwork grace the walls of a gallery.
At Dana Hall, your teachers and advisors will provide you with the tools and insight to bring your talents to life. You’ll find peers who share your dreams and become collaborators on your artistic journey.
