What is Fine Arts?

  • Fine Arts is a discipleship tool of AG Youth designed to help students discover, develop, and deploy their ministry gifts, inspiring students to use their God-given abilities in the local church, community, and around the world in ministry or secular vocation.

  • We, along with leaders and family members, encourage students to develop their gifts and then use them in their schools, churches, and communities. Fine Arts Festival enables students to experience a time of learning through evaluations, workshops, and interaction with other students.

  • Each year, over 65,000 junior and senior high school students begin preparing their entries for the district and National Fine Arts Festivals. These students are encouraged to develop their gifts to a greater level than the year before. Students may enter as many as 80+ categories offered in 7 main divisions: Art, Communication, Dance, Drama, Instrumental, Vocal, and Writing.
