Our Vision

Our vision is that visual art has a bon-a-fide niche and is prominent in everyone's life. Government and school administrators see visual art as an essential component of the curricula and as a prerequisite to all post-secondary education. Visual art rivals the maths and sciences in the public's perception of important subjects. All Saskatchewan residents have access to quality visual art activities. The public acknowledges, encourages and respects these activities as an essential contributor to expression, creative thinking, problem solving and defining culture.

Integration provides enthusiasm for each discipline complimentary. Left brain thinkers can appreciate the learning activity and how it reflects back to art, and right brain thinkers can often solve the enigma of science based activities, the how and why.

Art is essential to learning-not just an educational frill. Learning about the visual arts gives students a window onto the rich and interesting world around them, teaching them about their own history and culture, as well as those of other people. It cultivates self-expression, imagination and creativity as well as critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.
