Annual Christmas at Chowan Event Announced
The Chowan University Department of Music will present its annual Christmas at Chowan concert on Sunday, December 4 at 3:00 pm in Turner Auditorium of the historic McDowell Columns Hall. The seasonal event is a community favorite as it celebrates the birth of Christ and rings in the holidays with the Chowan Winds and the beautiful voices of the Chowan University Singers and the Community Chorus. The President Kirk Peterson and his wife Rachel, will provide the narration.
“I look forward to this event every year and am grateful that so many talented musicians can come together to share their love of music, and that our community helps to make Christmas special for so many children,” shared Dr. Mary Hellmann, Music Department Chair and Director of Bands.
In lieu of admission we are collecting (unwrapped) toys for Hertford County children in collaboration with Smart Start. Please bring a gift and come celebrate the start of the Christmas season. The doors to Turner Auditorium will open at 2:30 pm for seating. For more information about this concert or the Department of Music at Chowan University, call (252) 398-6236 or email music@chowan.edu.
