The Spivey Hall Children’s Choir will perform at the Southern Division Convention of the American Choral Directors Association in Jacksonville, Fla. from Thursday until Monday. It will be the sixth performance for the choir at the event. The children’s choir is a community outreach and education program of Clayton State University’s Spivey Hall. Typically, choirs are chosen for ACDA conventions by audition, but in rare cases – like this one — choirs are invited to perform without an audition. The Children Choir’s performance is for the ecumenical service for the 2,000 conductors attending the convention.
