One Event, Two Ways to Watch: |
|
Inspired by our artistic students, Singing Girls of Texas (SGT) presents Adventures in Color, a multimedia performance exploring the idea of music as visual and performance art.
Each piece was selected for its connection to a different color. Student-led groups not only learned and performed the music, but came up with a visual concept which embodies the story, the color, and the essence of that piece. All the work included in Adventures in Color is student directed and created. Every concept, photo, piece of art, or movement was created by their incredible minds.

|
Join us at The Color Festival! This socially-distanced, in-person event takes place May 15th at 7pm . The Color Festival includes a big-screen showing of Adventures in Color, a live meet the artists panel, food trucks - entrees and dessert, balloon animals, above-the-mask face painting, and other colorful activities.
If you prefer our virtual option, Adventures in Color will be streaming online at ArtsAcademics.org/LIVE, May 15 - 21.
