The performance combined the classical composer Handel’s original work with blues and jazz, in order to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision of “a beloved community” that comes together to celebrate diversity under one roof.

This experience is part of the AUSL network’s commitment to providing all fourth graders an opportunity to experience a live performance at the Auditorium Theater. Other trips planned this year include performances from Alvin Ailey and the American Ballet.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
