Gainesville ISD Fine Arts
Welcome to GISD Fine Arts
The Fine Arts of Gainesville Independent School District from grades K-12 prepares students for the creation, practice, study, and criticism of the arts, in a context that emphasizes cultural diversity, community engagement, and technical innovation. The Gainesville ISD is dedicated to advancing the arts through student expression, the pursuit of perfection, and the creation of new work, preserving the past while striving to define the future of artistic traditions. It is committed to exploring the interrelationships among the arts and among other disciplines. Through presenting performances and exhibitions, Gainesville seeks to deepen the understanding of the arts, expand audiences, and enrich the quality of life at the school, life after school, and in our community of Gainesville.

March is Youth Art Month across the Nation and in Texas we of course celebrate it BIG! The Texas Art Education Association in partnership with the Bullock Texas State History Museum and the Governor's office, celebrates Youth Art Month with an art competition that features less than 200 art pieces from across the state.
Students selected are invited to Austin for an award ceremony and gallery show at the Bullock Museum. This is an amazing honor and we are proud that GISD had one art piece selected for this show.
Please congratulate Sophia Hernandez in Grade 6 from Mrs. Stogner's class at Gainesville Intermediate. She was at the event on Sunday, March 29, to receive her medal and certificate with her family and Mrs. Perkins.
For the event, TAEA also showed a video asking students, "Why does the world need art?" Students Natalia Matas-Dominguez Grade 9 and Blake Britain Grade 10 were featured on the video shown at the ceremony.
