Bronxville School students celebrated their achievements, creativity and talent at the annual Spring into the Arts festival, which ran from March 3-16. With 59 student artworks displayed in 37 participating stores throughout the village of Bronxville, the event highlighted the artistic talents of students in grades 3-12.

The festival kicked off on March 3 with the highly anticipated art stroll and scavenger hunt, followed by an opening reception at the Picture House which featured a curated exhibition of 14 outstanding student artworks. In addition, the High School Arts Society set the stage for the night of live performances with an open mic, during which guests were treated to live music by Will Sousa and Sam Bright. 

One of the standout moments included a performance by a group of talented high school seniors, led by singer and songwriter Madeleine Brandes, accompanied by musicians Wyatt Gravier, Miles Jernigan, Jack Toal and Austin Waggoner. They played “Valerie” by Amy Winehouse, “Love Song” by The Cure and “Sunday Morning” by Maroon 5. Their performance earned a standing ovation from an enthusiastic crowd of friends, family and community members. Established six years ago, the High School Arts Society has been instrumental in celebrating the arts in Bronxville and providing students with a platform for creative expression.

The Spring into the Arts festival is made possible thanks to the collaboration between the Art Club, the Bronxville Chamber of Commerce, the High School Arts Society and the PTA Arts Council.

A Bronxville School Foundation grant funded the mics, mic stands, a speaker and amp, and power cables for the Spring into the Arts events.
