‘Where hand, head and heart go together’ – paraphrased from John Ruskin
Mountain Lake Public High School (MLHS) recognized the the contributions of fine arts to a school curriculum with a Fine Arts Awards Reception on Sunday afternoon, May 3, “backstage” in the school’s auditorium. Honored were students who participated this past school year in music, drama and speech – including letter winners, solo and ensemble award recipients and this year’s seniors.
Distributing the awards were Kurt Jahnke, director of bands; Andrea Brinkman, director of choirs; Julie Brugman and Crystal Fast, drama production directors and Brugman also presented recognition to speech participants for Alisa Nickel, speech coach.
An ice cream reception followed the awards distribution.
In addition, a number of students shared their “superior” instrumental and/or vocal numbers presented at the Solo/Ensemble Contest held on Saturday, May 2, at Jackson County Central Public High School.
