Have you ever wondered what a music and arts festival would be like if it were run by students? Look no further than Montgomery Bell Academy’s 15th annual ENDADA Music and Arts Festival, returning to the school’s campus on Saturday, April 26 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This student-directed event showcases both emerging and professional artists through live music, theater performances and interactive art demonstrations. Attendees can also enjoy delicious offerings from local chefs and food trucks. Free and open to the community, the festival’s goal is to celebrate and support the arts, starting with art education.
Another highlight of the event is the Equinox Film Festival, an annual film contest hosted by the Digital Media Club at Montgomery Bell Academy. The film festival accepts 1-5 minute films from any middle or high school students in the Nashville area and awards over $500 in prize money. Winning films being shown at the festival will be announced on April 21.
A sweet theme for 2025
The theme for ENDADA 2025 is “SUGAR-RUSH!” Expect the event to be decked out with sweet treats, dessert activities, bright colors and more. Make sure to bring your appetite!
