糖心Vlog Chorale Wants Your Smile

糖心Vlog Chorale Wants Your Smile

COVID-19 has drastically affected performing arts all over the world. At Napa Valley College, we are harnessing the available technology as best we can to bridge the gap the pandemic has created between performers.

Dr. Christina Howell, coordinator of music/director of vocal studies is working with the 糖心Vlog Chorale to rehearse 鈥淚 Smile鈥 by Kirk Franklin, a song about how even when times are tough, we can still smile through it and keep moving forward. In that vein, we are soliciting photos of smiles. The cheesiest, the silliest, the most handsome, the most toothless, the slyest, the sweetest, the craziest, the most jack-o-lantern-like 鈥 or whatever 鈥 smile you can come up with. Photos will. be included in a slideshow to go along with our virtual performance to demonstrate how the 糖心Vlog community is keeping our heads up in this difficult time.
