Click here to purchase tickets for Showcase of heARTS 2023.

On Thursday, March 30, young artists from across Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB) will take the stage at Showcase of heARTS 2023! Since having to pivot to a virtual format the past two years, this is the first time that all musicians, dancers, actors, artists, staff and guests will be able to come together under one roof for this celebration of the Arts at HWDSB.

Hosted by Hamilton Foundation for Student Success (HFSS), Showcase of heARTS displays student talent in all shapes in forms while raising funds for HWDSB students. HWDSB students will directly benefit from tickets purchased through Student Support Grants, which provide financial assistance to students for school-related expenses and basic personal needs.

The full Showcase of heARTS talent lineup can be viewed below and there are many students, staff members and volunteers who deserve to be recognized! Readers should find some familiar names from elementary schools like Greensville, Hillcrest, W.H. Ballard, and more. There are also plenty of secondary school performances thanks to artists from Glendale, Sherwood, Bernie Custis, and more. Below the student talent are the names of the many dedicated staff members and volunteers who have helped bring the evening to life.
