The Saturday Scene is a year-round, ongoing opportunity created by the IAC – Independence Arts Conservatory to encourage and cultivate the talents of boys, girls, young men and young women in grades four through twelve from four counties in Northwest Mississippi – Tate, Desoto, Marshall and Panola. Each session meets regularly each Saturday of the month from 10:00 a. m. to 2:00 p. m. (Close to performance dates, the Saturday hours are extended and some evening rehearsals are added.)
