Experiencing the Arts

For your Week 1 Assignment, choose one of the options listed below to discuss your experience of the arts:

Option A

Thinking about the Arts

How have you interacted with the arts in your life? Describe how you have participated in the arts in a 260- to 525-word personal essay. Were you a participant, or were you a part of the audience? This is an essay describing your personal experiences, but must adhere to APA formatting in regards to general formatting and title page.

Describe the following in your personal essay:

  • A description of the art you experienced
  • How the experience personally affected you
  • How you plan to continue your participation in the arts as either an audience member or creator of the visual or performing arts
  • Your own definition of what the arts are and the purpose they serve
  • In depth introduction and conclusion

Note to student: Your experiences of the arts may include attending concerts or plays, art in your home or a museum, a movie, or your own work as an artist or performer. If you are describing your own artwork, discuss how the process of creating or performing affected you and what you wished to communicate.

Community Guide

Look ahead at the different art forms covered in this course: visual arts, music, dance, film, theatre. Where can you find and experience these art forms in your local community, or the community in which you were raised?
