Last night’s Spring Band and Choir Concert was a beautiful celebration of talent, collaboration, and growth! Our students filled the auditorium with energy, passion, and artistry, showcasing months of hard work and dedication.

From the powerful harmonies of our choirs to the dynamic performances from each of our bands, the concert reflected the heart of our music program—community, creativity, and excellence. 

As we wrap up the school year, this concert reminds us why music matters. These performances are more than just notes on a page—they're expressions of identity, teamwork, and joy.

Bravo to all who performed!

Art Awards & AP Studio Art Exhibit #207Now #art @mainewestart @lahartanddesign2

 

On May 8th, we wrapped up the year with one of our favorite traditions: the annual Art Awards BBQ and the AP Studio Art Exhibit! The evening was filled with laughter, music, grilled favorites, and—most importantly—recognition of the incredible work our student artists have created this year.

Families, friends, and staff came together to celebrate the achievements of our art students in AP drawing, painting, ceramics, digital art, and photography. This year's AP Studio Art exhibit is a stunning showcase of vision, technique, and personal voice—each portfolio told a powerful story. Congratulations to our AP Studio Art students on creating compelling and expertly crafted portfolios!

Thank you to our amazing art teachers for guiding and inspiring students every step of the way, and to everyone who came out to support the arts at Maine West. We’re proud to keep raising the bar and giving our students meaningful opportunities to shine!

On May 6th, our Piano 1 and Piano 2 students took the stage for a beautiful recital showcasing their hard work, creativity, and growth! From first-time performers to more experienced players, each student brought their unique personality and musical voice to the keyboard. The recital featured a wide variety of pieces—from classical to contemporary—and highlighted the progress they've made in technique, expression, and confidence.

It was inspiring to see students support each other, take musical risks, and share their artistry with a full house of family and friends. Huge shoutout to our piano students for their dedication and to our amazing audience for creating such a supportive environment!
