美术系-太阳贵宾

A message from 美术系 Chair 杰森史蒂芬...

The 美术系 seeks to cultivate 看台Personalis in a manner consistent with the teaching mission of Saint Ignatius College Prep. The study of performing arts and visual arts enhances and enriches a student's intellectual, 物理, 情感, and interpersonal skills. Through learning in the arts, a student is able to develop curiosity, 意识, social responsibility, and artistic integrity through cross-curricular connections to the world. Students can experience a wide range of courses all four years at Saint Ignatius, whether through performing courses like band, 唱诗班, 管弦乐队, 跳舞, 音乐理论, or through visual art courses like painting, 画, 雕塑, 摄影, 平面设计, 和动画.

His 跳舞 class is so different from everything else the students get to do.

For fifty minutes a day, teacher 凯文 Bellie makes sure they get to move around, be creative and listen to music.

“They get the chance to just have fun, and almost by accident they learn about the art form,贝利说。.

Growing up, Bellie trained in all styles of 跳舞. His teachers prioritized a life blend: Being a well-rounded 跳舞r and a well-rounded person. This ignited his own desire to educate young people about the importance of the arts and becoming that versatile individual.

Before Bellie started teaching, he was a company member for 16 years and an artistic director for nine at Circle Theatre Chicago. It was here that his dream of directing became a reality.

Bellie draws on that experience every single day. He runs the theater program at Saint Ignatius College Prep, in addition to teaching those 跳舞 classes.

He reminds students that during the pandemic everyone turned to the arts.

他说, “Everyone was binge watching television, 听音乐, going online to create their own art – And that’s because it’s a vital thing in our community.”

From the community back to class, Bellie tells his students that we need the arts to survive. He works to make sure the humanities are not forgotten.
