Good Counsel offers an outlet for every artist to emerge. With programs in choral music, instrumental music, visual arts, dance, and theatre, Good Counsel provides an opportunity for every student to discover his or her artistic side. We bring our students into contact with professional artists from each discipline in a variety of ways, including workshops, mentorships and community-based relationships that connect our work to the world outside the classroom.
