What's the Deal? DYFA...A celebration of Dufferin's youth and what they're accomplishing in the arts. We're unique! This festival of music, dance, drama and visual arts embraces students not only from the elementary and secondary divisions but also the public, separate, private and home schooling sectors. Administrators, principals, teachers, parents, school councils, and community sponsors link arms for the children of Dufferin! First Prize? Second Prize? There are many other opportunities to participate in competitive Art Festivals. The DFYA is not about competition or solo divas. We gather to showcase what is creating excitement in the arts based on Ontario’s Ministry of Education curriculum.
