The Barton Performing Arts Department invites the community to enjoy nostalgic, holiday-themed entertainment, as well as the induction of the second class into the Fine and Performing Arts Hall of Fame, at its annual holiday concert at 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 4 in the Fine Arts Auditorium.

The annual holiday extravaganza will feature the Barton Concert Choir, Hilltop Singers, JazzCats, and Barton Dance Theatre. Three new ensembles will also perform, including the Guitar Ensemble, the String Ensemble, and the Rock Band.

Director of Instrumental Activities Jamie Minneman is eager to share the program with the community

“We are excited to showcase the many talents of our students in this holiday-themed concert,” she said. “We will have something for everyone by featuring multiple styles and genres.”

While admission is free, donations are accepted and appreciated. All proceeds will benefit the Fine and Performing Arts students.
