For the past two years, she has played on the Firehawk basketball and volleyball teams and recently started cheering as well. Her favorite artistic discipline is dance. “I love dance! I’ve been dancing for a really long time,” she said, “I found that dancing helped to express myself both constructively and creatively.” Lyu’Shana chose to attend Harding Fine Arts because of our exceptional and challenging dance program. She has continued her educational journey here because of the stability and community the school provides, as well as her opportunity to leave a legacy here. “I’ve gotten close with the teachers and people know as someone who strives for the highest . . . [Harding Fine Arts] as left an impression on me as well.” In her free time Lyu’Shana enjoys working and saving money for purchases that will advance her future and collecting shoes.

Harding Fine Arts Academy Auditorium

Composer George Gershwin died tragically of a brain tumor in 1937, but his melodies linger on. With the help of his brother and songwriting partner Ira Gershwin and Broadway songsmith Alan Jay Lerner, MGM wove more than a dozen of those melodies together to create an otherwise wholly-original movie musical starring Gene Kelly as the title character and as the choreographer of some sparkling production numbers, including the now-legendary “American in Paris” ballet. Accentuated by the talents of Leslie Caron and Oscar Levant as well as art/set direction inspired by French impressionist painters, this showcase of creativity earned six Academy Awards, including the Oscar for Best Picture. S’Wonderful!

This event is FREE to the public.

Concession will be available and all proceeds will benefit the Film Production Club at Harding Fine Arts Academy.
