Fine Arts

At Owensboro Public Schools, we have a rich history of fine arts programs that engage our students and strengthen both their personal and academic growth. We believe in providing fine arts experiences and opportunities for all students across our district. We would like to congratulate all of our fine arts students and staff on their performances at the 25th annual Fine Arts Festival and throughout the school year. We are looking forward to kicking off the 2024-2025 school year and providing another fantastic year of the arts for our OPS students.
