An intimate group of music lovers were thrilled by the sounds of the Original Magnolia String Quartet at the first concert in the Concerts at the Pointe series.  The quartet’s selections spanned from classical to modern.  Everyone in attendance was enthralled by the beautiful music!

The Regional Arts Council of Zachary held its 1^st annual scholarship fundraiser on August 8, 2016. Proceeds raised from ticket sales and the silent auction will be used to award two graduating high school seniors a $500.00 scholarship to pursue an academic degree in the performing or visual arts. This scholarship is open to high school seniors enrolled within the Zachary Community School district.

The deadline is April 3, 2017. The RACZ Scholarship Application can be downloaded here or obtained from a high school counselor.

The Regional Arts Council of Zachary is seeking committee members for the Fall Art Crawl Committee. Your work will help to organize and execute the organization’s largest annual event. More than 1,000 people gather in downtown Zachary to shop, support local artists, and socialize. If you are interested in serving on the committee, contact April Hawthorne.

During the Fall Art Crawl, we were filled with such joy to see hundreds of our neighbors walking around downtown Zachary, visiting local shops and buying art from local artists. More than 100 participants also created art focused on healing after the Great Flood.

The Fall Art Crawl and other arts programming, such as the Concerts at The Pointe and youth arts education, is only possible through the generosity of individuals and businesses, like you!
