The Saratoga Performing Arts Center is accepting submission for its Adirondack Trust Company Festival of Young Artists (FOYA).
Young artists can submit work at spacfoya.org. This year’s theme is Metamorphosis. The deadline for all submissions is Feb. 1, 2021.
“Our first virtual Adirondack Trust Company Festival of Young Artists gallery this past summer was incredibly inspiring – re-imagining our signature education event and serving as a virtual artistic home all year long,” said Elizabeth Sobol, president and CEO of Saratoga Performing Arts Center. “This winter, we are delighted to have the opportunity to provide our region’s aspiring artists, poets, dancers and musicians with not only the opportunity to showcase their work.”
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. The Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC) announced that its Student Artist Submission Portal for The 2021 Adirondack Trust Company Festival of Young Artists (FOYA) online gallery is open at spacfoya.org.
For the first time, SPAC is awarding one student in each of the three categories â Visual Art, Literary Art, and the Performing Arts â with the distinction FOYA 2021 Outstanding Artist. Each of the three artists selected will receive a $500 Award to support the further development of their craft. Submissions for the Festival, which is themed Metamorphosis, will also be accepted in visual art, literary art, and the performing arts.
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. â Saratoga Performing Arts Center leaders reflected on its reimagined 2020 season at their final meeting of the year, while looking ahead to 2021.
The SPAC board of directors gathered virtually on Thursday for its winter board meeting to discuss the current state of the center and recap the 2020 SPAC Reimagined season.
Like so many cultural institutions around the world, SPACâs 2020 was remarkably different than what president and CEO Elizabeth Sobol imagined when the ambitiously programmed season was first announced in January.

âJust over seven months ago, SPAC took the unprecedented measure of cancelling its whole Summer season in the face of the worsening coronavirus pandemic,â Sobol said in a press release. âTaking that step felt literally like walking off a cliff.â
