Songwriter's Walking Concert and Outdoor Public Art Exhibit

The public is invited to a Songwriter's
Walking Concert and Outdoor Public Art Exhibit at Perpich Center for Arts Education at 4 p.m. both Thursday and Friday, May 15-16,
weather permitting.

Individual songwriters from
Perpich Arts High School are composing both vocal and instrumental pieces inspired
by various locations throughout the Perpich campus and will perform them while
visual arts students will create works also inspired by location, weather and
the out-of-doors.

Attendees will hear the music
performed live as they walk around the beautiful Perpich campus with its rolling,
curving pathways and small pond while at the same time viewing the works of art
that are paired with the music.

For those who drive by
Perpich on Olson Memorial Highway and see only the parking lot and the high
school building from the road, the campus behind the high school will come as a
welcome surprise with its park-like serenity.

The walking concert and
public art exhibit are being presented by students from the songwriting/music
business class mentored by music instructor Janika Vandervelde and the public
art class taught by visual arts instructor Pat Benincasa.
