Mission of the Festival
The Olds & District Kiwanis Music Festival Society is dedicated to promoting the appreciation of Music and Speech Arts by organizing and operating an annual Festival of the Performing Arts which encourages participation by all amateur performers in the province of Alberta, and which provides an opportunity for students to perform in a non-competitive environment, leading toward further personal growth and excellence.
​
Philosophy of the Festival
The Olds & District Kiwanis Music Festival Society believes that the most important aspect of the Festival is the learning derived from the entrant's performance and observation at the Festival sessions as well as from the understanding and new ideas gained from the Adjudicator's remarks.
Awards are not meant to be competitive goals, but are the recognition of excellence and encouragement for the continuation of studies in Music and Speech Arts.
