Our Vision

About the Campaign

About the Campaign

In a time when innovation is prized, it is the arts that fuel imagination. The fine and performing arts are an essential part of our students' development. The arts build confidence, spark creativity, and foster empathetic relationships that strengthen our entire community.

About the Campaign

About the Campaign

The Friends of the Fine Arts committee was formed in 2026 to fundraise for specific vital project enhancements to the learning spaces planned for the new Community Auditorium. Friends of the Fine Arts is a collaboration between BHS Fine Arts Boosters and BHS Horseshoe Club. Together, we help fuel the B220 | Elevate the Arts Campaign.

Project Progress

About the Campaign

Project Progress

Thanks to the community's support and the passing of the November 2024 bond referendum, funding has been allocated to address several necessary renovations to Barrington High School, including a new community auditorium. As with many large capital projects, not all necessary enhancements are covered by the approved budget. That's where the campaign comes in.

B220 | Vital Project Enhancement

Fundraising for what's not covered by the Referendum

Throughout the planning and design process, the Transform220 team identified a list of “few but mighty” vital enhancement projects. These are the projects that will be funded by the B220 | Elevate the Arts Campaign.
