COACHELLA VALLEY, Calif., Dec. 15, 2020 /PRNewsCentre/ — The 4th Annual Children’s Art & Music Festival (CAMFest), this year’s week-long virtual event branded CAMFest Goes On! 2020, went off without a hitch concluding on Saturday with a 14-minute finale video encompassing art, music, dance, theatre, photography, videography, and short film students from Desert Sands Unified School District (DSUSD). The finale video (https://youtu.be/9Ds1Jx1QDrs) also featured the CAMFest song written by James East and sung by Maureen Doherty. The Desert Sands Educational Foundation (DSEF) full event can be viewed on www.officialcamfest.org as well as on the officialcamfest Facebook page plus all 3 DSEF social media platforms.

To date nearly $20,000 in sponsorships and donations have been received to support the arts programs in the schools of DSUSD. "We are thankful and proud of the funds raised for our art and music programs this year; we didn’t know what to expect with a virtual event," says Kristie Beasley, Chairperson and Visionary of the festival. "Hopes are high that we return live to the Indian Wells Tennis Garden next December for CAMFest 2021."
The CAMFest goal, set and supported by DSEF, is to grow the arts and music programs at every school, grades K-12.
