Since 1975, the Morden Festival of the Arts has been a local highlight for young people within our community. Students have developed their skills in disciplines including dance, piano, strings, speech, voice, drama, band, and vocal choral. The Festival offers a venue for student performances and adjudication, enabling performers to grow in their abilities and self confidence.
