There’s no Business like Show Business at ArtBreak 2022! Festival goers will be treated to a wide variety of entertaining acts, from choirs, acrobats, tumblers, cheerleaders, monologues, short plays, ROTC Drill Lines, and more! ArtBreak has more stages than a “3-ring circus!”

The student performances at ArtBreak are always stellar! The arts festival educates and engages students in grades K-12 from more than 100 Caddo Parish Schools, private schools, charter schools and homeschools. More than 100 students are scheduled to perform across three stages on ArtBreak Weekend.

Many Caddo Parish Public Schools participate in Saturday’s All-Parish Honors Performances held on the Citizens National Bank Stage. Students of all ages from different Caddo Parish Public Schools perform in Honor Bands, Honor Choirs and Showcases. These students are a select group chosen by their teachers as outstanding students who reflect a strong dedication to their music and school band.

ArtBreak is especially important this year to student performers (and parents) as there have been very few public performances since 2019.
