WHAT/WHERE/WHEN

SPRING BREAK!!

WEEKLY SPOTLIGHT

IT'S SPRING BREAK!

WHERE IN THE FIFTH IS UNCLE TRAVELING MATT?

From the journal of Uncle Traveling Matt:

"I met a wonderful band of young string players as well as some extremely talented art students at Maine East High School this week for a performance of 'Of Time and Space'. Not only did they learn some extremely challenging works, but the arts students painted these lovely works during the concert and were shown to the public afterwards. It was quite a show and in my many years, I haven't seen a education collaboration quite like it!"
