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.
