SFPS Music Students will Perform and in the Canyon Road Paint/Sculpt-Out

Santa Fe, NM: On Saturday, October 21, 2017, ​hundreds of students from ​SFPS Music Education Programs will flood Canyon Road during the Tenth Annual Historic Canyon Road Paint & Sculpt Out. Bands, choirs, elementary music troupes, pianists, and string orchestras​ will share their music ​in the company of Canyon Road ​artists and ​galleries. This is the 8th year SFPS Music Education programs have partnered with Canyon Road to bring student musicians to this historical event.

The Paint & Sculpt Out celebrates the generations of artists who have been creating paintings, pottery, jewelry and sculptures in the beautiful light of New Mexico.

Santa Fe Public Schools​’​ Music Education programs are a strong​ and ​vibrant ​core component of SFPS curriculum. Nearly 4,000 ​students in ​grades 4-12 choose band, choir, guitar, orchestra, or piano. Additionally, 100% of students in our elementary schools engage weekly in high quality music curriculum.

Music is alive and well in Santa Fe Public Schools! We ​invite our community ​to​ join us to support our young musicians, give them a cheer, and enjoy the wealth of ​youthful ​artistry that will be on display. All events are free and open to the public.
