Although the oldest is only 14, many of these young artists have been studying for many years, and the quality of their work and the breadth of the disciplines within which they worked are remarkable.

Principal Matt Kraemer joked that Sazer seems to always hold her shows on snow days, either that or she brings the snow. For those who attended, they could not fail to be impressed at how lucky Idyllwild is to have support for the arts through the smARTS program, from which many of these students have benefitted.
