We have created an Art Program that talks about God as the author of beauty (CCC 2129) and therefore teaches children to look at the created world, God's masterpiece, for inspiration and for the rules of beauty. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church says, Arising from talent given by the Creator and from man's own effort, art is a form of practical wisdom, uniting knowledge and skill, to give form to the truth of reality in a language accessible to sight or hearing (2501). Being mindful of God as our master artist and teacher, the art program also engages the family in a discussion of beauty rooted in the philosophies of Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas through art theory handouts and home-follow-up assignments.
