Bring a Friend to the AFA Day
For this Shadow Day, each student that registers is being asked who referred them to the AFA. The focus area who brings in the most students on Nov 13th will receive donuts...for free!
Please think about who would enjoy the AFA experience and encourage them to register for a shadow day at www.fcpsartsacademy.org.
AFA Silent Auction
The AFA Silent Auction will be Tuesday November 12th at Oscar's Alehouse. There will be a table set up in the restaurant starting at lunch time. Bidding will close at 8:00pm. We have lots of great items to bid on so far including themed baskets, rentals, sports tickets, gift cards, and student created work. Please mark your calendars to have lunch or dinner at Oscar's on Tuesday the 12th. Oscar's will donate 10% of the entire day's food sales to the AFA!
If you would like to donate something to the auction, please complete this form so no one duplicates your donation.
All Auction Donations are Due October 30th!!!
You can also fill out the form if you would like to volunteer to run the auction table (we still need a lot of volunteers to do that).
AFA Apparel Store is Open until Oct 28th!!
Store closes Oct 28th. This is a great place for birthday, holiday, or even graduation gifts (if you are planning really far ahead).
