Fine Arts Winter Fête
Fête is a word from Old French meaning celebration or feast. Great Hearts Irving Upper School is delighted to announce our third annual Fine Arts Winter Fête—a celebration of the great work our students have produced in their Drama, Art, and Music courses.
We hope you will be able to join us for one or more of these celebrations to feast your eyes and ears on the many accomplishments of our Upper School Students!
