Paterson’s Manatee Chorus went to see the Jacksonville Symphony’s “Young People’s Concert” in Jacoby Hall today! 🎶🎶🎶
It was fantastic! We heard some amazing music and then had lunch in the new Riverfront Plaza park and took some time to play on the brand-new playground!
We want to give a special THANK YOU to our awesome chaperones who came with us! We also had Mr. Chris Gugel, the County Fine Arts Coordinator, join us for the adventure!
Music is ALIVE at Paterson!
