ARTS FEST 2019
ACS’s Arts Fest is more than our school’s largest community outreach event, more than our greatest
fundraising effort: it is a ton of fun.
The open stage and the open barbecue grill, the performances of theater, classical music and modern
dance, the student clubs offering cookies, juice and insight into their activities, the chess tournament
and the horse riding, and the many many people come from all over Sofia to spend a day in our park-
campus - it is the most fun day of the year.
And we were happy to host the reunion of ACS Classes of 1999, 2004, 2009, 2014. The alumni started
arriving early, even before the official start of Arts Fest, and then quickly dispersed from their special
corner to mingle, seek out their teachers, take selfies on the steps of Sanders Hall, or explore the
America for Bulgaria Campus Center which many were visiting for the first time.
A friendly competition was held between the classes who had anniversaries - the members of the class
which had their 5th year anniversary would donate 5 leva to the school, the members of the class with
the 10th anniversary would donate 10 leva, the class with the 15th year anniversary would donate 15
leva, and 20th year 20 leva. The competition was decisively won by the Class of 2004. Congratulations
and thank you!
After the student clubs put aside funds necessary for their activities next year, the total sum gathered
at Arts Fest was 6798 leva.
