Join us for our annual Spring Concert and Arts Expo – an exciting evening of performance, art exhibits, and culinary delights.

Doors open at 5:15 p.m. and guests are invited to enjoy a variety of delicious hors d’oeuvres prepared by students in our Culinary Arts program. The menu includes something for everyone, including chicken profiteroles, bacon wrapped water chestnuts, savory focaccia with Vermont cheddar, as well as a selection of delicious desserts.

Visual Arts students will showcase work in a variety of media, including painting, ceramics, mixed media, and linocut printing. A slideshow of student photography will highlight artists’ diverse interests and visions; design technology students will feature their woodwork, as well as a model of this year’s timber framing design and build project.

The concert begins at 6pm with TA’s Musical Theatre class, who will light up the stage with a dynamic medley of songs from the hit movie La La Land and the new Broadway sensation The Outsiders. The evening will end on a high note with encore performances from Grease. Next up are instrumental performances from the high school stage band and instrumental music classes, The instrumental classes will perform music by Cream, the Doors, and Natasha Bedingfield, and the stage band’s lineup will include music by The Meters, Bobby Timmons, Steely Dan, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, and more.
