Activity for all local arts programs is temporarily suspended for the foreseeable future to support efforts to limit the spread of COVID-19 and maintain the safety and wellbeing of students and staff.

This is a platform for students, parents and teachers to find out about local creative and performing arts programs and events across the state.

Local arts programs offer learning opportunities for students and teachers in dance, drama, music and visual arts. 

For more information about arts programs in your area, please contact your local Arts Coordination Officer.
