Children's Choir Workshop & Day of Arts 2012

A joyful, fast-paced choir experience for boys and girls in grades 3-8. No prior choir experience needed.  Acclaimed Canadian composer/ conductor/ educator Brian Tate will help you make the most of your voice and introduce you to some of his choral compositions.  Choose a 90-minute drama, dance or visual art workshop for a mid-day change of pace. Finish with an evening concert performance where singers will show off their learning from the workshop!

Your $40 participant fee includes the full day of top- notch choral music instruction, a choice of drama, visual art or dance workshop taught by a specialist, a performance opportunity in a professional venue, and one concert ticket for the evening performance!  (Participants will not need a ticket, as they will be performing.)  More concert tickets can be purchased for $10 through the box office at Evergreen Cultural Centre:  604-927-6555.
