Our Current Facilities
Our current Fine Arts facilities provide a quality environment for our student artists to develop and showcase their talents. The nearly 400-seat Guarch Family Auditorium is equipped with dressing rooms and backstage amenities for those performing, and is the primary facility where the choir, band, orchestra and drama perform. The Auditorium also houses the WCS Fine Arts Gallery, which displays the work of students and artists from the community. The high school and middle school art classes enjoy spacious state-of-the-art studios equipped with all of the tools necessary to hone their craft.
Fine Arts Association Missions Scholarship
The FAA Missions Scholarship Fund was established in memory of Annabelle Interian, a dedicated Westminster Christian School parent who sadly lost her life in a cycling accident in 2016. She was an amazing fine arts volunteer, but her real passion was to serve others through prayer, Bible studies and local and international missions. The WCS Fine Arts Association Missions Scholarship honors her passion by offering two high school fine arts students the opportunity to go on a mission trip or work on a mission project funded at up to $500 each.
