The Parents Association presents this annual event featuring two days of virtually non-stop musical performances by students in the Alice S. Pfaelzer Tuition-free Conservatory (TfC). In addition to the musical spectacle, a wide variety of food will be available for purchase and parents will be selling special Performathon and Merit merchandise to help raise funds to support the TfC program.

The performances are free to the public, so please come out and join the fun!
