| The Goochland High School Choir and the Virginia State University Concert Choir |
On Saturday, February 22, the Goochland High School auditorium
was filled with talented young voices for the “Uniting Communities through
Music” concert to benefit the Second Union Rosenwald School Museum (secondunionrosenwaldschool.org)
on Hadensville-Fife Road.
The Master of Ceremonies was Dr. Cavell Phillips.
The Goochland High School Choir, under the direction of Erinne
Smitherman, and the Concert Choir of Virginia State University in Ettrick, near
Petersburg, under the direction of Dr. Craig Robertson treated the audience to soul
stirring and inspirational music.
Several VSU choir members were recognized for their
achievements in state competitions and will move on to compete regionally.
A silent auction of paintings donated by Petersburg artist
Eugene Vango was held to raise funds for the museum. Vango is the retired head
of the VSU Department of Art and Design.
Goochland’s own Calvin Hopkins, President of the Second Union
Rosenwald Museum, invited all to visit the Museum, which plays an integral part
in preserving and highlighting an important part of our history.
