Once again, the Wakulla County Schools’ Art, Music and Theatre teachers are busily preparing their students to participate in the annual Celebration of the Arts,

The past 10 years have presented enjoyable nights of singing, musical acts, and theatrical performances.  This year’s production promises much of the same.

The evening begins with a Silent Art Auction at 5:30pm on Thursday, March 1, 2012 at Wakulla High School.  As last year, each school has produced a painted canvas for the public to bid upon.  At 6:30pm the performances begin in the WHS auditorium with singing from the elementary students, followed by musical performances and skits  from Wakulla Middle, Riversprings Middle, Wakulla High and COAST Charter Schools.

Tickets may be purchased at the door and prices are $2 for students and $5 for adults.  Hang on to that ticket because door prizes will be given away throughout the evening!  All proceeds benefit lucky Wakulla High seniors for scholarships in the Arts.
