Learn. Experience. Celebrate.

Celebrating ART is a week-long event celebrating the visual arts in the Middle Georgia community.

EXPERIENCE our visiting artists-in-residence who are on-site throughout the week demonstrating their own unique trades and art forms. LEARN about relevant current art topics with our Artistically Speaking and Lunch and Learn speaker series. CELEBRATE the arts at our Gallery 6010 artist marketplace and other special events. This event is open to the public and for all art enthusiasts in our community.

SIP (Stratford Interested Parents)

SIP is Stratford's volunteer parent organization. Its purpose is to enhance each student's school experience by supporting the faculty and administration through a variety of planned events during the school year. SIP provides the volunteers and funds for activities such as the Football Tailgate Party, Daddies' and Special Friends' Breakfast, Field Days, School Dances, Faculty Appreciation Breakfasts, Open Houses, and Uniform Resales. In order to ensure that all SIP events are a success, it takes a large number of volunteers. Participation is open to all interested and enthusiastic parents, guardians, or even grandparents of students enrolled at Stratford Academy.
