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.

Devon Fitchett, Performing Arts Department Head/Director of Dance
Most people see the new calendar year or the spring months as symbolic of a fresh start or some type of renewal. As an educator, I feel fortunate to have another opportunity to begin again each fall. The new school year affords me a chance to reflect on what has worked in my practice and tweak what hasn’t; to unlock new creative possibilities; to watch a new and unique Dana Hall community engage, learn, and grow together.

Art. Fun. House. These three words form the title of the current Dana Art Gallery show. They represent the ideals of creativity, pure joy, and community that the arts can provide and that we are in desperate need of in our daily lives right now.
