DIAMONDHEAD, Miss. β€” The Diamondhead School of Fine Arts (DSFA) is excited to announce that tickets are officially on sale for its summer production of Disney's Alice in Wonderland JR., a whimsical musical adventure featuring a cast of talented young performers from across the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

🎨🧑 Our Clay Class is rolling right along!

This week, our talented students explored new hand-building techniques by creating cylinders and beautiful spoon rests. It has been wonderful watching their confidence grow as they learn the art of working with clay and bring their creative ideas to life.

A huge thank you to Peggy for being such an incredible clay instructor. Her patience, knowledge, and encouragement make every class a special experience for our students. We are so grateful to have her sharing her talent with our community!

The current session has been a fantastic success, and we are excited to announce that our next clay class series will be coming soon. Classes will once again be held on Monday afternoons, so keep an eye on our page for registration details and announcements.

At DSFA, we love providing opportunities for students to learn, create, and discover new artistic skillsβ€”and clay class continues to be one of our favorites! 🏺✨

Our cost-free summer reading program, Down the Rabbit Hole, is already making a big impact! Under the instruction of Christina Oats, students are reading three chapters each week while participating in engaging classroom activities, discussions, and comprehension exercises that bring the story to life.

We are thrilled to keep students learning, growing, and developing a love of reading throughout the summer. As an extra special reward, each student who completes the program will receive a free ticket to attend DSFA’s production of Alice in Wonderland, allowing them to see the story they’ve been studying come alive on stage!

This program is a wonderful example of multiple DSFA departments working together to create meaningful educational experiences for our students. From literacy to theatre, we are proud to provide opportunities that encourage creativity, imagination, and lifelong learning.

A special thank you to the Dollar General Literacy Foundation for making this program possible and helping us offer this opportunity completely free of charge to our community. Your support is helping local students stay engaged, confident, and excited about learning all summer long!
