WE NEED YOUR HELP

Kootenay Festival of the Arts 
is dedicated to providing an opportunity
for young performers to achieve excellence.
To encourage participation,
we would like to keep entrance fees as low as possible and
 obtain high-quality adjudicators.
We would also like to continue to reward excellence with a variety of awards.
