On Friday, April 16th, Milne transformed one small corner into a gallery and performance space for an audience of about 40-50. Several students provided their original artwork for display, including oil paintings, color pencil, photography, and pen & ink.
There were several musical performances of jazz/blues, classical, and rock with acts performing sets of 15-25 minutes. There were even a few improv moments, including working on a new song with A+B2 riffing on a crowd-inspired “Library” theme. Catch a bit of the fun in this video!

This event was used to raise funds for the Senior Class Gift.
Unfortunately, we weren’t able to capture every performance, but here are the links to several other performances:
My Funny Valentine; guitar and voice.
Ralph Vaughn Williams; violin and voice.
Saxophone Quartet
