What role do arts and performances play in Field’s student experience?

The arts at The Field School are student-powered and integral to the culture of expression and innovation on campus. Whether designing costumes, composing original music, or directing a stage production, students are deeply involved in every step of the creative process. Projects are cross-disciplinary and often collaborative, helping students explore their voices while developing technical and teamwork skills. Performances are more than just a final product—they’re journeys of learning, identity-building, and risk-taking. Field’s support for student-led arts encourages creativity, leadership, and self-confidence. These experiences also contribute to impressive college portfolios. Ultimately, the arts at Field aren’t extras—they’re essential tools for students to communicate ideas, explore identity, and shape culture on their own terms.
