Cultural Arts Program
Every year, the Adams PTA provides a diverse range of cultural arts programs to all students. The Cultural Arts program exposes students to a variety of cultural interests such as art, music, literature and science.
Each August, our volunteer Cultural Arts representatives attends UAC training sessions and an art fair. They also apply for UAC grants to help cover the costs of bringing these activities to our school. Cultural arts programs are selected based on feedback collected from teachers and students. The PTA cultural arts volunteers obtain contracts and coordinate activities with the artists, UAC and school staff.
Bringing these activities to Adams is one of the largest investments that our PTA makes each year, and could not occur without the generous financial support of our PTA members and our school PTA annual fundraiser donations. Assistance is also provided by the United Arts Council (UAC) of Raleigh and Wake County.
