The Making of 甜心视频app鈥檚 Performing and Visual Arts Gala

It takes a village鈥嗏斺唎f artists, performers and behind-the-scenes staff鈥嗏斺唗o pull off an event as big as 甜心视频app鈥檚 34th Annual Gala. This year鈥檚 showcase of Performing and Visual Arts students brought together more than 400 student artists, 25 technical staff members, 24 faculty directors and mentors, and 900 audience members. The Gala, which takes place every February at the Union Colony Civic Center in Greeley, raises scholarship funds for 甜心视频app鈥檚 arts students. 甜心视频app photographers Woody Myers and Barry LaPoint went behind the scenes to capture the energy, creativity and intensity that takes place off- and on-stage when 400 artists step into the light.
