ACATOBER CONCERT
Opening Reception this Wednesday!
It is October, which means that it is time for our Acatober Concert! Welcome back to special guests the Tufts Amalgamates, who last year lifted the roof off the WHS auditorium! You'll also get your first glimpse of our 4 talented student-run A cappella ensembles joined by the rest of
our award-winning choral groups. Acatober is a sellout every year. The line will be long, so make sure to arrive early on October 16. $10.00 for adults, $5.00 for students and seniors. Although checks are accepted, please bring cash, if possible, to make ticket sales quicker and more efficient.
We're also looking for volunteers to help sell tickets and manage the crowds - you will get to see the concert and are guaranteed a seat so please contact Sharon Lowe at [email protected] if you can help - 5:30 to 7:00 pm but if you can't make it that early, 6pm is fine too.
