Fine Arts
The Regina Dominican Fine Arts program strives to develop an understanding, knowledge, and appreciation of the arts. Students are encouraged to explore elective classes in the fields of visual art, music, theater, and dance to build a diverse and comprehensive portfolio. To complete the Fine Arts graduation requirement, a student must pass two semester-long Fine Arts courses or one year-long Fine Arts course.
A wealth of extra-curricular opportunities, including musicals, plays, concerts and clubs, exist to increase the breadth of our students’ exposure to and involvement in the arts.
Course Offerings in Fine Arts
Visual Arts
Students gain proficiency in the basics of drawing, color theory, and design through experience with a wide variety of art media. Course instruction includes work with painting and drawing materials, ceramics, and computer graphics, as well as study of major trends in art and artists.
Dance
Dance classes are open to all students! Dance classes can be taken as a P.E. Credit or Fine Arts credit. Students can select from the following course options: Dance Foundations, Modern Dance, Dance Composition, Advanced Dance and Dance Leaders (Dance Foundations must be taken as a prerequisite for all other courses). Students 
have the opportunity to learn many different genres of dance, including ballet, modern, jazz, contemporary, musical theatre, Ugandan, hip-hop, improvisation and composition. In addition to technique and choreography, students will also learn about the history of each genre of dance and how dance has evolved over time.
Opportunities for students to develop their dance understanding and abilities are also available with Regina Dominican’s extra-curricular Orchesis Dance Company.
