Silverdale Baptist Academy Hosts Inaugural ArtsFest

  • Saturday, March 15, 2025
This past Thursday evening, Silverdale Baptist Academy held its first-ever ArtsFest, a showcase of the creativity and talent of its students. The event brought together families, friends and the community to celebrate the arts in all their forms.

From preschoolers to high school seniors, every student had their artwork displayed in a visual presentation that highlighted their skills and imagination. The school transformed into a colorful, interactive gallery, with thousands of pieces of art adorning the walls.
Each corner was alive with the creativity of SBA’s students, illustrating their passion for art, music and performance.

The evening began with a welcome from a senior student, who played on her dulcimer. Her music set the tone for an unforgettable night, filled with both artistic expression and community spirit. Attendees mingled with vendors and enjoyed offerings from a selection of food trucks.

SBA’s Praise Band led the audience in worship, setting the stage for more performances throughout the evening. The choirs, consisting of students from various grade levels, sang, while the preschool and elementary school choirs added their spirited songs.

The evening’s festivities also featured performances from the full orchestra. The His Company dance team performed, while the drama students put on a display of theatrical skills. A highlight of the evening was the Shakespeare students, who delivered performances that transported the audience to the world of the Bard.

One of the event’s unique aspects was its interactive component. Guests were invited to get hands-on with activities such as crafting clay crosses and watching a live potter’s wheel demonstration.

Officials said, "At its heart, the ArtsFest was about community. It was a reminder of the abundant gifts and talents that God has bestowed upon SBA’s students, and a celebration of how those gifts can be shared with others. The event served as a testament to the creativity and dedication of both the students and faculty, as well as the strong sense of community that exists within the school."
