A Taste of Christmas: A Centennial Celebration Spelman Christmas Carol Preview Concert

A Taste of Christmas is a one-hour sampling of Spelman favorites from the 98th annual Spelman-Morehouse Christmas Carol Concert presented by the Spelman College Glee Club. The concert will include narration that highlights the history of the Glee Club, the annual Christmas Carol Concert, music selections, composers, and more! A short Q&A will follow giving the audience an opportunity to ask the conductors and student leaders questions. This is a great opportunity for those who are unable to attend our evening performances or those who just want a sneak peek! The doors will open at 10:30am and the concert will conclude at noon. At 10am, the Westlake High School Choir will be doing a 30-minute prelude performance in the Upper Manley Student Center before the concert.

The Glee Club will be having a toy drive this year! If you want to participate, please bring your donations to the concert. Collection tables will be available in the lobby of Sisters Chapel from 10 a.m. to the program's start. The toys will be distributed to children and school groups in attendance, following the concert. Any remaining toys will be donated to a local non-profit.
