Art/Photography

A gift to this fund supports Creighton Prep’s tremendous visual arts program, which fosters the passions and talents of students who want to hone their skills in painting, drawing, sculpting, mixed-media, photography and more.

Your gift will support the equipment, resources, visiting artists, programming and training that allow our students to master their craft and create lasting works of art!
