BRATTLEBORO — Six regional high school groups take the stage on Friday, Jan. 31, to give their own concert in anticipation of the next day's 11th annual Collegiate A Cappella Concert.
The High School A Cappella Warm-up Concert again rocks the main gallery at the Brattleboro Museum & Art Center downtown. Proceeds support the In-Sight Photography Project's scholarship fund.
According to In-Sight Executive Director Teta Hilsdon, approximately 90 percent of the project's students rely on the scholarship fund. In-Sight offers a 100 percent sliding scale, she says, so that no one who wants to take a photography class is turned away for lack of means.
The lineup includes Renegade, Shoulder Narrows, Spiralia, and X-pressivo, all student-run and -directed groups from the Brattleboro area. Two top-notch high school ensembles return to round out the show: the Brattleboro Union High School Madrigals, directed by Patty Meyer, and the Leland & Gray Madrigals, directed by Ron Kelley.
In-Sight teaches photography to youth ages 11-18.
