A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Dear Friends and Families, Welcome to the Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) 2020-2021 performance season! We are in the midst of truly unprecedented times. While our season may look different from those of years past, I am grateful that the arts can continue to connect us, inspire us, and uplift us as we look toward a brighter future. Our dedicated and passionate students have demonstrated such ingenuity in adapting to a time of Zoom lessons and socially distant projects. Their resilience is a direct reflection of the spirit and heart of our amazing school. Despite the many changes that the pandemic has brought about, OCSA is proud to present a lineup of excellent presentations and collaborations by all of the school’s phenomenal arts conservatories that showcase the diverse talents our students have to offer. I would like to express my gratitude to our Board of Trustees, Foundation Board of Directors, Foundation Advisory Board, Emeritus Board, President’s Circle, Encore, and PSO members. Their continued leadership and vision help to shape the lives of our students each and every day. I must also take a moment to acknowledge the OCSA family, which includes YOU. I am very proud of the way our parents, students, alumni families, administrators, faculty/staff, and members of the local community have come together to meet the unique challenges of these times. The opportunities we provide for our young artists would not be possible without your extraordinary support, commitment, and enthusiasm. I would especially like to recognize our students, who — even when faced with great uncertainty — have remained positive and strong, serving as examples for us all. Their hard work is the driving force behind all we do and continually reminds us of why we do it. Now, I invite everyone to join me in celebrating another impressive OCSA performance season. Please enjoy! All good things,
Ralph S. Opacic, Ed.D. Founder and Executive Director Orange County School of the Arts
