Augusta County Fine Arts teachers are ensuring that all students are continuing to learn, explore, and create through the arts during these challenging times.  Whether at home or in school, teachers continue to provide meaningful, artistic experiences for students.  Examples include virtual art shows, art kits to-go with resources, video demonstrations, family resources, and teacher check-ins.  Students are also using software for graphic design and digital photography.  Art activities utilizing everyday materials in the home allow students to explore their surroundings.  Drama productions are exploring techniques previously used in radio shows and performing entirely over online meeting platforms!   Music programs utilize technology through virtual performances, integrating at home and classroom performances into streamed "concerts".  They are exploring other styles of music and performance through a variety of projects, chamber groups, and solo development.  Students are learning music editing and recording software and exploring other methods of mixing, coding, and composing.
