Dear TxCAA,

Tell your friends and family there's snow place like a TCA+A campus! We are looking for creative K-12 students in the Fort Worth area to join our fine arts family. Enrollment is currently open for FWAFA and TeSA's 23/24 school year. Apply before enrollment closes February 13.

WAYS TO HELP:

Hand out flyers! At the front office of both schools, you can find informational flyers to hand out to those special young artists you think would be a perfect fit for us. Take and give out as many as you'd like!

Distribute door hangers with us! Texas School of the Arts has some new neighborhoods around them and we want to inform them about TeSA. We would greatly appreciate anyone willing to donate their time and energy to help us hang door hangers. If interested, please contact Sheyna Ferraro.

Share on social media! Reach out to family, friends, and neighbors by sharing your love for our schools and encouraging them to visit ArtsAcademics.org/apply. Facebook Groups for arts, families, and neighborhoods are also great places to let like-minded people know about their local free, public arts charter school.

TCA+A Annual Campaign: Make Magic Happen

Listen to our students talk about the magic of our schools!

You have likely experienced the magic of Texas Center for Arts + Academics. Perhaps it was watching an award-winning musical in our auditorium, or a choir concert performed off-campus. Maybe you were viewing artwork from our talented students in our gallery, or just felt it walking the halls with our students of Fort Worth Academy of Fine Arts (FWAFA) and Texas School of the Arts (TeSA). Magic happens here every day.

Now is your chance to help us create that magic for each and every student. Give a gift to the TCA+A Annual Campaign Today!

This year's goal is to raise $50,000 before spring break and reach 100% participation with our board, staff, and families. TCA+A’s Board and Staff has already hit 100% participation. Please join them in giving to our Annual Campaign.

Peter and the Starcatcher

High School Play

Feb 24, 25 & 26

Fort Worth Academy of Fine Arts

The play Peter and the Starcatcher is an adaptation of the novel by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson. Peter and the Starcatcher changes the century-old story of how a miserable orphan comes to be the legendary Peter Pan.

Throughout this journey, Peter and his mates are shipped off from Victorian England to a faraway island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. At sea, the boys are discovered by a young girl named Molly, a starcatcher in training, and a crew of pirates led by the menacing Black Stache. From marauding pirates, unwilling comrades, and unlikely heroes, Peter and the Starcatcher playfully explores the depths of greed and despair… and the bonds of friendship, duty, and love.
