Wonderful time in Dark County schools

We have spent this week in Darke County, Ohio, visiting schools and bringing a wide range of music to area high school students, including Bartok, Brubeck, Wolosoff, Fujiwara and Eryilmaz.

DARKE COUNTY – Franklin Monroe and Arcanum students were in for a treat this Monday, as the talented Carpe Diem String Quartet performed for a captive audience in both school gymnasiums.

Each Darke County school is being paid a special visit this week by the string quartet as part of an ongoing Darke County Center for the Arts initiative to encourage the arts in youth.

“Carpe Diem did a tremendous job, and we enjoyed having them out,” said Franklin Monroe Principal Jason Wood. “The Darke County Center for Arts does a great job presenting material for our schools.”
