Art Appreciation Course 

This course aims to help you grow personally and improve your overall well-being through the study of Art Appreciation with Life as we see it as a subtext. The course may include a gallery visit, or exploration of online collections.

Throughout the course, you’ll find engaging and enjoyable challenges that will help develop both personal and work-related skills. As you progress, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of creative and practical arts, learning how they reflect and shape our society over time. Additionally, you’ll explore how art contributes to the cultural richness of our community, both locally and globally. Our goal is to encourage your self-expression and creativity, promoting mental sharpness, memory, attention, concentration, and social skills. You’ll have the opportunity to form new friendships and visit galleries together, if desired. Assessment will focus on the development of skills studied each week, as well as end-of-course presentations. We encourage self-reflection and documentation using personal accordion books or notebooks. Throughout the course, you’ll delve into the world of Modern art from 1880 onwards, discussing and analysing artworks, artists, and movements.
