We could not be more grateful to FOLMADS for their continued support of our music, drama, and arts programming here in Lexington as they have enabled so many projects, resources, commissions, and incredible experiences for our students that have truly helped to augment the quality of arts education we are able to provide! To have such support is both atypical and exceptionally special!

​FOLMADS Flowers for Performing Arts Seniors


We had a great response to our Flowers for Performing Arts Seniors fundraiser! Thanks again to Oak Knoll Flowers for helping us provide these wonderful gifts to our seniors. It was a nice way to honor their commitment to the arts, and to wish them best of luck in their next endeavors.
We will be doing this fundraiser again this spring, so we hope you will help us honor the seniors again this coming year!
