Welcome to the IH Arts Conservatory Weekly Newsletter!

This week on The Director’s Chair, I sit down with IHHS seniors Luke Egnaczyk  and Claire Andrews to talk all things Cabaret: Legacy — through the lens of the students bringing it to life. They share what the theme means to them, their favorite moments of the rehearsal process, and what makes this year’s Cabaret especially meaningful as seniors. We also cover how to get tickets and why this performance is such a powerful celebration of student talent, creativity, and tradition. Their passion is contagious, and this is one conversation you won’t want to miss as Cabaret: Legacy approaches!

The Red Letter Delivery

It is not too late to subscribe for our brand-new arts experience designed to celebrate and elevate the creativity of our student artists: The Red Letter Delivery!



The Red Letter Delivery is a monthly art subscription that brings the beauty of Indian Hill student artwork directly to your mailbox—delivered in our signature red envelope—for just $8 per month.

Each month, subscribers will receive a professionally printed 5x7 piece of original student art, paired with a personal note from the student artist sharing the inspiration behind their work. It’s a meaningful blend of creativity and storytelling—offering a tangible connection to the imagination, voice, and heart of our students.

All proceeds from The Red Letter Delivery will be reinvested into the Indian Hill Arts Conservatory, directly supporting arts programming and creative opportunities for students across our district. This project is generously sponsored by the Indian Hill Foundation.

Our debut edition, which recently reached the mailboxes of subscribers, celebrates Home for the Holidays and features a stunning portrayal of the Cincinnati skyline by IHHS student artist Norah Condorodis. Her artwork captures warmth, nostalgia, and family history—an especially poignant tribute inspired by her grandfather and great uncle, whose stories are woven into the spirit of the city.

As I shared in the announcement,“This is more than an art subscription—it’s a tangible connection to our students’ imagination and heart. Each red envelope is a moment of surprise and delight, and the artwork inside makes a truly special gift for someone who loves both mail and art.”

Subscriptions are open now, with the first delivery arriving in January 2026. Subscriptions may also be purchased as gifts and mailed anywhere—making The Red Letter Delivery a thoughtful and meaningful present for the art lovers in your life.

I hope you’ll join us in celebrating this beautiful new way to support and experience the arts at Indian Hill—one red envelope at a time.
