Teen Arts
The
Ocean
County
Teen
Arts Festival
has been bringing together teenagers of the
fine and performing arts for many years.
Annual events include a student art exhibit; student performances
including choral groups, concert bands, orchestras, jazz bands, instrumental and
vocal soloists, theatre presentations and dance; poetry readings; a film
festival featuring student-produced videos; and workshops led by professional
artists. Performances are not compared or ranked in any way. The focus is on
sharing achievements and learning. Critiques by professional artists follow all
student performances, both verbally and in writing, and are offered as an
instructional tool to guide students in the use of their gifts and provide
insight into the creative process.
Representing MDHS in the areas of visual arts, literary arts, musical
theatre, drama, instrumental music, vocal music, piano, dance, and video, the
students put forth their best effort and participated in the festival with their
peers from other Ararea high schools.
Congratulations to the following students who were
