Vocal Arts Takes City Vocal Contest By Storm!

Congrats to all participates who entered the Chicago Citywide Vocal Solo Contest!

The contest took place at Whitney Young High School on Saturday, March 27th and was sponsored by the Office of Academic Enhancement and the Office of Fine Arts.

We are extremely proud of our Vocal Arts Students who represented Gallery 37 at a very high level (see ratings below). The Chicago Citywide Vocal Solo & Ensemble Contest is a wonderful opportunity for our students to showcase their hard work and talents and receive constructive criticism from an experienced judge. It was definitely a day of learning and of fun for all involved!
