Patrons of the Arts

POTA stands for “Patrons of The Arts” but it could just as easily represent “Parents of The Arts.” Walker parents created POTA in 2008 to support all fine arts at The Walker School. We support each fine arts department from Preschool to Upper School with volunteers and by providing for some items for the classrooms benefiting each all students whether or not they participate in a fine arts extracurricular activity.

The arts are vital to the comprehensive development of our children. The arts help students address new challenges, build confidence, and grow creatively. POTA is proud to help Walker embrace the value of each student’s artistic expression – whether through the visual arts such as photography, drawing, painting, and sculpting, or through the performing arts including band, orchestra, chorus, theatre, or dance.

    "When indifferent student Garbiela Nettles is inexplicably admitted to the prestigious Doves Forge Academy, all she wants to do is leave. But before she can get herself expelled, Garbiela starts to hear sounds that no one else hears: ghost echoes from the remnants of a long-ago tragedy in the school’s theatre. As she investigates the sounds (by joining the disastrous play in progress), Garbiela uncovers a story that’s both surprising and surprisingly moving."
