Polk County Fine Arts Festival
March 16, 2019 (CANCELED due to Weather)
​Rescheduled to April 13, 2019

Polk County Fine Arts Festival

The DSA Jazz Band will be performing Saturday, April 13th at the Polk County Fine Arts Festival. The festival features school music ensembles and visual art from around Polk County. This event will take place at Munn Park in downtown Lakeland.

This is a great day to watch groups from around the county perform. There will also be student art on display around the park. While students will be released to parents at 3:30 p.m., parents and students are encouraged to stay and listen to other groups. The end of the day will conclude with the Polk County All County High School Jazz Band and The Polk County Directors Jazz Band.

Let's come out and support all of the various groups performing!

(Students can get extra credit for listening to these ensembles.)
​
​This is an outside event. On a nice Florida days it can be very warm. In the past, parents have brought personal pop up tents to block the sun/weather. Feel free to bring one if you have one. Audience members are also encouraged to bring folding chairs and or a blanket to sit on in the grass.
