Evening to Shine

Durham Public Schools (DPS) and the Durham Public Schools Foundation will be co-hosting An Evening to Shine, formerly known as An Evening of Entertainment, on February 24, 2026, at DPAC to showcase our district?s performing arts students and successes and raise money for college scholarships. As in years past, hundreds of choral and dance students representing all of the district?s schools will perform. Proceeds from An Evening to Shine support the Durham Promise Scholarship Fund, a community-funded scholarship program administered by DPS Foundation. The Fund operates based on the belief that every DPS student deserves an equitable, debt-free college education.
