SBCOE Hosts SBC Arts Showcase

San Benito County Office of Education partnered with the San Benito County Arts Council to host the 8^th Annual San Benito County Arts Showcase on April 10, 2024, at the Veteran’s Memorial Building in downtown Hollister. San Benito County’s Arts Showcase gives students in grades TK-12 the opportunity to show off their artistic talents in both visual and performing arts.

This event was an unforgettable celebration of local art and creativity. Attendees were able to view a total of 3,775 pieces of art from students in preschool to 12^th grade and watch thirteen different groups perform.  Performers included: Black Bonsai, Hollister Elementary School District Band, San Benito Stage Company, Enterprise Martial Arts, the Poetry Out Load Champion and Runner Up, Animation Dance Company, Rancho Maze Concert Band, Flying Colors, San Benito stage Company, San Benito High School Dancers and Yamamoto Hula Ohana. This was the largest showcase to date and offered a unique opportunity for students to showcase their talent and share their passion for the arts with the community.

The Women’s Club of Hollister gave prizes to several student artists. A list of winners can be found here .
