The mission of the Honors events is to provide skilled, creative and talented young artists in Saint Paul Public Schools with a professionally produced Concert, Performance, and Visual Art Exhibition.
About the Honors Concert 2013
On Tuesday, April 23, 2013 Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS), Ordway Center for the Performing Arts and the College of Visual Arts will showcase the artistic talents and skills of more than 450 students in the 22nd annual Honors Concert, Performance Art and Art Exhibition.
The Honors Concert and Performance Art event, featuring junior high students, began at 7 p.m. in the Ordway Music Theater. Elementary and middle school World Party students performed at 6:00 p.m. in the Marzitelli Foyer.
The Master of Ceremonies will introduce the concert featuring instrumental and vocal performances conducted by Jerry Luckhardt (band), Claudette Laureano (orchestra) and Matthew Colton (choral). The event also included a projected slideshow of Honors Exhibition student visual art that was on view at the Honors Art Exhibition.
Complementing the musical performances, an exhibition of student artwork will be displayed in May. It will feature the visual artists’ creations selected from original paintings, drawings, photographs, beadwork, ceramics and other works submitted by SPPS visual art teachers. The exhibition reception date and time is to be determined.
