2021 Virtual Arts Festival
2021 Virtual Arts Festival
The GNC Music, Visual Arts, and Dance departments are happy to announce that our annual district-wide Arts Festival will remain true to tradition by showcasing student work from all four of our academies. The only difference from years past is that the entire show will be displayed virtually through a gallery-style google slide presentation.
GNC’s student musical compositions and visual creations should serve as inspiration and evidence for us all to be optimistic about the future. We are excited to celebrate our students' accomplishments and help them share their artistic gifts with you.
Please click the video below to view a trailer and that will give you a glimpse of what you will see in the slide presentation.

This year's district Arts competition took the form of a Paper Airplane Contest. The past year has been a difficult time for everyone due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are all eager to safely rise above, and soar past, this trying time. The airplanes represent our goals and aspirations for new beginnings in 2021 and beyond. Each student’s goals and aspirations are unique to them and are therefore represented through a variety of media. It is our hope that these airplanes will bring everyone who sees them a moment of awe, reflection, and hope.
