The Newark Catholic music/theater department strives to reach students with many interests and talents. Participants receive a well-rounded education through our classes such as: Music Appreciation, Percussion, Vocal Music Ensemble, and American Musical Production. Our students are encouraged to use their God given talents and partake in our yearly performances of our winter musical as well as our Spring Cabaret, backstage crew, and liturgical choir.

The Visual Arts

“Looking at art is one way of listening to God.” - Sister Wendy Beckett

The quote above by Sister Wendy Beckett describes what happens in the Visual Arts classes at Newark Catholic. In addition to looking at art, students create, respond, study artists and reflect on their artistic creations as a means to hear God’s voice in their own lives. At Newark Catholic we offer many classes that allow students to create in a way that best suits their learning needs. The classes are Art Fundamentals, Ceramics I and II, Painting I and II, Sculpture, Drawing and Independent Study courses for those students who are interested in a career in the Visual Arts. Each year in May, the Festival of the Arts celebrates all the artwork that students have completed throughout the school year.
