Create a New District

Welcome to Presto Assistant, a brand new way to manage your fine arts organizations. Let’s get started!

Who is this for? #

  • A district fine arts administrator who wants to use a modern, easy-to-use tool to organize their district's inventory and manage fine arts organizations.
  • Or a director at a small school or college/university who doesn't have a fine arts administrator.

Tip

All Presto Assistant organizations must belong to a District which helps manage data across all Presto Assistant organization types in a district — Band, Choir, Dance, Guitar, Mariachi, Orchestra, and Theater.
