NDA’s Chanduni Herath Receives Overture Award

Congratulations to NDA’s Chanduni Herath who received the 2023 Overture Award for Theater. Chanduni was the only 10th grader to win out of all arts categories. 

The Overture Awards is a program that recognizes, encourages and rewards excellence in the arts among Greater Cincinnati students in grades 9-12. Its mission is to encourage arts education as an integral part of a student’s academic experience and to create an environment that encourages training in, and appreciation of, the arts. The Overture Awards Competition is the area’s largest solo arts competition and offers awards in six artistic disciplines: creative writing, dance, instrumental music, theatre, visual art, and vocal music.
