Arts Council Napa Valley has recognized six students for excellence in the arts for February, four in the categories of instrumental music and choir and two in visual arts students. âThis is encouraging news considering the restrictions facing music education during COVID-19, making it challenging to play instruments or sing together in person,â the Arts Councilâs announcement read.
In March, all instrumental and choir students will be allowed to practice outside with precautions in place.

ACNV executive director, Chris DeNatale, said, âItâs been a long, painful year for our young artists and teachers. We are grateful to the Napa County Health Department that has set out specific guidelines to keep us safe while allowing our students to play and sing together again. We look forward to seeing musical productions return this spring.â
