Friends of Maranatha Arts

Friends of Maranatha Arts is an organization of Maranatha High School families and friends, committed to supporting and promoting Maranatha's Arts programs.
The Friends of Maranatha Arts is an organization of Maranatha High School parent volunteers, families, and friends. We provide essential support to Maranatha's performing and visual arts programs by contributing financial resources, staff support, and volunteers to ensure all arts programs are reaching their highest caliber educational experiences and performances.

We invite you to partner with us in supporting the school's music, dance, theatrical, and visual arts programs by becoming a PATRON OF THE ARTS. Your membership helps ensure each student benefits from the highest caliber education and practical experience in the classroom, studio, and on the stage. As a Patron Member you will benefit from timely communications about upcoming events and ways to be involved, fellowship with us, meet others with similar interests in our MHS family community, and more.  

Join us for an exciting season of performing and visual arts at Maranatha High School!
