    Johnston County Arts Council's Interests
GeneralThe Johnston County Arts Council serves and promotes every artistic discipline: Dance, Music, Theatre, Storytelling, Literary Arts, Visual Arts, Folk Arts, Multi-disciplinary Arts, and any in-between.





The video below shows the North Carolina Poet Laureate Kathryn Stripling Byer visiting North Johnston High School and leading a poetry workshop for Junior and Senior English Students.

Music for the Lunch Bunch

The video below is of just one type of Artists-in-the-Schools Program. In March 2008, Environmental Artist Bryant Holsenbeck visited Riverwood Middle to teach students how to turn "found objects" into art.



The video below plays the trailer for the award-winning documentary, Class Act. Class Act weaves teacher extrodinaire Jay W. Jensen's personal story with the fate of arts education in America today, giving us a report card on what lies ahead for America's children.
