Fun With Opera
On May 20, 2008, the ACBBV is bringing Fun With Opera to the Big Bear Lake Performing Arts Center. Professional actors will stage condensed versions of operas for K-6 students brought to the PAC on field trips.


High School guitar program
In 2004, ACBBV established a music program at Chautauqua High School with the purchase of five guitars. The Arts Council continues to underwrite the program, the first in the school's nine-year history. Under the leadership of Howard Antmann, students earn five credits for the course.


Encore Series
During 2006 & 2007, ACBBV presented a series of classical music concerts in private homes. Audiences enjoyed the work of acclaimed pianists, violinists, cellists and more.


Scholarships
When funding is available, we award scholarships to high school seniors who plan to pursue college degrees in music, fine art or theater.
