Benjamin Cardozo has an excellent Fine Arts Program and offers a variety of Art Courses. Students must first successfully complete the Introductory Art Course before advancing to more specialized courses. This year the Alliance for Young Artists and Writers has honored our students and their teachers for having the most Art award winners in the NYC Regional. Our students' work has been displayed at the Brooklyn Museum, Nassau County Museum of Art, the Chancellor's office, and many other exhibit areas.
