The black box in Swig, designed as a flexible rehearsal and performance space, is also home to Ms. Sherman's Comedy Improv class.
Mariboe Gallery holds art shows throughout the academic year. Students and visiting artists exhibit their work and hold panel discussions regularly. Visual Arts faculty also exhibit their work; all of the arts teachers at Peddie are working artists.
"Peddie to Thee," the school's alma mater, is sung at all major events at the school, including Convocation, Founders Day and Commencement. It represents a proud tradition of Peddie songs dating back to the founding of the school in 1864. Here, Peddie singers perform a virtual version as a spring concert during the pandemic.
All visual arts classes travel to NYC each term to visit galleries and museums and work on assignments. Here, students in a film and video class collaborate on a project near Rockefeller Center.
Students in Honors Studio Art are given a private workspace for the year as they prepare portfolios for college submission.
The chorus room holds one of Peddie's 4 practice pianos and is where choral groups and play practices often take place. It also serves as a small performance space for student recitals.
Peddie has 4 private, sound-proof practice rooms where students can rehearse or receive private vocal or instrumental lessons from adjunct faculty.
Swig Arts Center becomes a home-away-from-home for student artists, musicians and actors. Arts faculty supervises the space with flexible hours that allow students time to rehearse, practice or just relax together.
Peddie vocalists and instrumentalists worked in a professional recording studio to produce "How Far I'll Go"
