All kindergarten and elementary students participate in art classes. Children explore media and materials, experiment with various subject matter, and learn about the history of art and recognized artists.

Londonderry students produce class plays throughout the year, including the all-school musical which takes place at the Whitaker Center. The annual Spring Arts Festival is an all-school celebration of the artwork and creativity of Londonderry students. Most grades enjoy annual field trips to art museums. Children in kindergarten have music sessions once a week with a music teacher. Elementary students may choose special classes in music and chorus. During fifth through eighth grades students are given the opportunity to form rock and roll “bands” under the guidance of experienced musicians. After practicing weekly in the second semester, these bands perform for parents and students during the last week of school.
