      The Elson Art Center, which is physically connected to both George Washington Hall and the Addison Gallery, is the hub of visual arts studies on campus. In Elson you will find studio classrooms, workshop classrooms, two darkrooms, and a multimedia center called the Polk-Lillard Electronic Imaging Center. Polk, as it's called, is where students get to work with digital photography, computer graphics, and video editing tools. The visual arts offerings at Andover include classes in painting, drawing, architecture, sculpting, pottery, video and film production, photography, set design, and woodworking. Also located in Elson are Kemper Auditorium and the Underwood Room, two spaces used for a wide variety of gatherings including Senior Tea and PSPA (Parents of Students of Phillips Academy) meetings.
