Tomorrow is Metro Connect! 🎨✨

Our annual chance to welcome everyone back -- and welcome our newest Metro Arts students to the family!

We’ll ask the fun get-to-know-you questions, but we’ll go deeper, too: What inspires you? What are you working toward? What do you want to create? What artistic risks do you want to take?

Here’s to a new year of connection, creativity, and taking chances. 💙🎭🎨🎬

The Gardening and Literature class transformed our downstairs garden space into a pollinator-friendly meditation garden. While learning desert gardening principles and reading texts such as The Secret Garden, students designed their dreamy garden filled with lantana, pomegranates, rosemary, vines, and more. They recently threw a garden party and taught their peers about building and caring for a garden. We are so proud of their hard work and thankful for their gift to the school!

What a blast at the Senior Music Showcase 🎶

Thank you to everyone who came out to support our young artists this weekend! Huge shoutout to our senior musicians for taking the stage at The Rebel Lounge -- an annual tradition at one of the country’s premier indie venues, recognized by Billboard as the Best Venue Under 500 Capacity in 2024.

At Metro, this is what we’re about: take the stage. Start the band. Record the music. Share your voice.

We’re so proud of this senior class -- and we can’t wait to see what they do next.
