Festival of the Arts

Last Wednesday, the many and varied artistic talents in the Ursuline Academy community were on display at the Festival of the Arts! We celebrated the wonderful artists, musicians, singers and dancers at UA.


The 31 Senior Studio Art students displayed their impressive final projects, a translation of a masterpiece seen at the Museum of Fine Arts onto a piece of furniture. The exhibit also included pieces that they have been working on for the entire school year: watercolor paintings of the Ursuline campus, paper mache fish, still-life paintings and charcoal drawings.


The Ursuline Academy Choral Group, Glee Club and Chamber Ensemble performed pieces that they have been working on throughout the school year. Enjoy these highlights from their concert!


The Choral Group performing "Were You There."

 


The Chamber Ensemble performing selections from the Harry Potter films.


The Glee Club performing "Thank You For the Music."



Our Liturgical Dancer Group also performed a beautiful dance to “You Raise Me Up” by Josh Groban. Senior and moderator, Megan, performed a special ballet solo set to “Hernando’s Hideaway” and wowed the audience with her skills in her toe shoes!

Congratulations to all our performers! And a special thank you to the moderators for all your hard work with the students this year! Thank you to Mrs. Glancy, Mrs. Cleary, Mr. Grohmann, Mrs. Rufo, Megan ’12 and Mrs. Keaney. To see more photos from the event, go to the slideshow on UrsulineAcademy.net!
