Members of the Whitefield community strolled across campus at the annual Hats Off To The Arts evening, celebrating the artistic talent of students in the Lower, Middle and Upper Schools.

A Lower School art gallery was displayed in the Outdoor Garden and Classroom and families viewed the artwork while listening to the Lower School Chorale sing and enjoying hors d’oeuvres. Middle School and Upper School artwork was on display in Founder’s Hall and Morris Hall, respectively, and the Fifth-Grade Chorale, bands, and orchestras all played background music while people mused over the galleries and looked for the winning pieces.
Artwork was judged by Ruth Barrett from Landsell Galleries in Atlanta. An Atlanta artist since 1990, Barrett has her faith-based work hanging in the home of many Whitefield families.
The night culminated with previews of the upcoming Middle School musical, Fiddler on the Roof, Jr., and the upcoming Upper School show, Whitefield Tony Awards: An Evening On Broadway.
