Proceeds from the annual Festival of Light: Arts & Crafts Market provide ART, MUSIC, & DANCE lessons for Trinity County children. The Trinity County Arts Council promotes the market and supplements funds to offer individual art and music lessons for our kids.

Our intention for this Scholarship is to provide group or individual lessons to children who wish to play a musical instrument, learn a dance form, or explore visual media such as painting, ceramics, or fiber arts. Instructors are available after school and many teachers offer classes year-round.  Lessons are provided in a series that will allow children to complete a project such as a showcase or concert.

If your child wishes to take lessons in ANY form of the arts by a specific teacher, call or email us and we will put together a program for you using a qualified teacher.

Sign your child up for lessons by completing this application and emailing it or mailing it to TCAC.

The TCAC Scholarship Committee will review the application and schedule a series of lessons with a corresponding instructor. Additional lessons can be considered. Contact us to discuss.
