FINE ARTS FESTIVAL
March 23, 2024
William Jessup University, Rocklin
Join us this year for our 1 Day Event at William Jessup University, Rocklin. This will be a time for students to show us what they have been working on this last year.
What is Fine Arts Festival?
Fine Arts Festival is a discipleship tool of NCN Student Ministries designed to help students discover, develop and deploy their ministry gifts. This is done by providing a space where Jr. High and High School students can perform or exhibit their talents and art to qualified adjudicators who will then provide constructive feedback for students. Students will also have the opportunity to receive an invitation to the National Fine Arts Festival, held this year from August 5-9, 2024 in Columbus, OH, where they can compete for scholarships and receive even more feedback to help develop their talents for ministry. More details about National Fine Arts below.
