VPA Capstone
The Visual Arts Capstone is a two-semester culminating experience for seniors in the Visual and Performing Arts Academy. Designed to celebrate, synthesize, and showcase your years of creative growth, this course focuses on four key pillars: Team Building, Collaborative Making and Leadership, Professional Portfolio Development, and Community Engagement. Throughout the year, students will strengthen leadership and teamwork skills through group art projects and collaborative studio experiences. You will finalize and present a professional art portfolio that reflects your artistic development and high school journey, preparing for college applications, scholarships, or creative careers. Capstone students will also plan, curate, and host public exhibitions and presentations of their work—including at least one event designed and executed entirely by the senior team. In addition, each semester includes a community service component, where students use their creativity to make a meaningful impact through art. This course is both a celebration and a launch pad—honoring your accomplishments as a VPA artist and equipping you to take your next step with confidence, collaboration, and creativity.
