Tri-DAC Nominations for Rising 6th-9th Graders

Nominations are now being accepted for the 2022 Tri-District Arts Consortium Summer Program.  Middle school students who attend the public schools of Lexington One, Lexington/Richland Five and Richland Two are eligible to participate. This year is a cause for celebration, as it marks the return of Tri-DAC after cancellation of the program in 2020 and 2021, due to the pandemic. We are excited to renew our mission of providing our students with an outstanding and concentrated study in the arts.

Parents may nominate their sons and daughters by completing the nomination form from the Tri-District website: https://tridac.org.  

The program is designed for artistically gifted and talented students who are rising sixth through ninth graders in the summer before the 2022-2023 school year. Students may audition in creative writing, dance, music (strings, vocal and wind/percussion), theater, and visual art.
