O.N. Jonas Foundation Artists-in-Residency

The O.N. Jonas Foundation Artist-in-Residency Program is sponsored by the O.N.Jonas Foundation, Dalton , Whitfield, and Murray County Schools , their PTAs and the Creative Arts Guild. 2007/08 Artist in Residency Programs are dedicated to the late M.B. (Bud) Seretean, Founder and Chairman Emeritus of the Oscar N Jonas Memorial Foundation. All Jonas Artists-in-Residency programs are open to the public. Please notify the school office when you attend.

The Oscar N Jonas Memorial Foundation was founded in 1968 by friends, business leaders , civic and educational leaders to perpetuate Oscar's aspirations for the cultural enrichment of all children in Northwest Georgia. This foundation promotes Oscar's vision through its sponsorship of the visual, performing and literary arts in Dalton Public Schools, Whitfield County Schools, and Murray County Schools.

The Foundation's primary focus is the support of an In-School Residency program which annually places artists in all three public schools of Dalton, Whitfield & Murray County.

For many students, this is their only exposure to the theatre, classical music and the visual arts. Encounters with the arts stimulate young minds, promote dreams and expand horizons. The arts provide an entry way to a bright new world, a world of hope and opportunity previously closed to many of our children.

The Board annually receives financial and administrative support from its co-sponsors: concerned individuals and business, The Creative Arts Guild, Dalton Public Schools, Murray County Schools, Whitfield County Schools and the Parent-Teachers Associations of the respective systems.

All programs offered through the Foundation remain free of charge. The generosity of our sponsors makes this vision a reality.
