Youth Fine Arts Festival

Fine Arts Festival helps students grades 6-12 discover, develop, and deploy their God-given talents by having their skills evaluated by qualified educators who encourage excellence, offer ideas for improvement, and inspire students to use their gifts in the local church, community, and around the world.

There is also a National Fine Arts Festival division for ages 18-23 called Kappa Tau. For more information, visit youth.ag.org/Participate/Fine-Arts/Kappa-Tau.
