Something to which we can look forward the May 2022 celebration performance in honor of this year’s 25th anniversary of the St. John’s School of the Arts in the Newberry neighborhood of Williamsport.
COVID-19 may be impacting operations at the school, but it has not stopped the lessons in music, dance and art offered to local children, teens and adults.
Instead of planning an event for Sept. 3, the school’s anniversary date, officials have opted to make plans for a May 2022 performance.
St. John’s is a unique school, combining not only elements of the arts but also of faith.
