After a one-year hiatus, the Northwest Civic Orchestra will again mark the holiday season with an evening of slides, beautiful decorations, tasty goodies and of course, Christmas music! “Making Spirits Bright” will be presented on Saturday, December 2, at 7:00 pm in the Nelson Performing Arts Auditorium on the Northwest College campus. General Admission is $12.00. Seniors, 62+ are $8.00 and students and children are admitted free of charge. Enjoy Powell’s annual “Christmas Fest” and the lighted parade, then make your way to the campus and celebrate the season with us!
The concert opens with “A Most Wonderful Christmas”, a delightful medley of “Winter Wonderland”, “I’ll be Home for Christmas”, “Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town”, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and the rousing, “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!”
Throughout the night you'll hear many of your other seasonal favorites too, including selections from Mannheim Steamroller, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, and even the hit movie "Frozen".
The orchestra is conducted by Maurine Akin.
