Thank you for joining us for an evening of merriment as we celebrated the joy of storytelling and music—two beautiful highlights of a classical Christian education. Guests also enjoyed the wonderful, community-supported silent auction.

Below, you can revisit his music, a special interview from the Visual Hymnal, and the array of sponsorship opportunities that were offered for early ticketing. We’re grateful you were part of this unforgettable event!
