What a memorable day for the music department at Epiphany! Our middle school band students learned how to build their instruments and played their first few measures of music together. We have a flute, three clarinets, three saxophones, two trombones and two trumpets. Special thanks to Mrs. Rosney for her care and patience as our eager students learned how to properly put their instruments together.
Concert Band is coming to Epiphany this year! How exciting for the arts! Mrs. Rosney invited representatives from Fuller's to bring a sampling of instruments to the school so prospective students could determine which one they'd like to learn to play. We have a lot of interest, and Mrs. Rosney is excited to get started on this new endeavor.
Join us Thursday night for our Student Favorites Concert! 7 pm in the PAC
Congratulations to Sr. Delima's second graders, who performed a delightful musical called, "Welcome to the Jungle." The story is based on Aesop's Fable, "The Lion and the Mouse."
The musical theatre class celebrated their successful run of "Pirates of Penzance, Jr." with a cast party at Creekside Park. What a beautiful afternoon - we even found a ship!
We are so grateful for all of the families, students, and staff members who came out to support our visual arts students Friday night at the O.Marks Building. It was a beautiful evening in downtown New Bern. Hundreds of visitors funneled through the lobby to see the wonderful paintings, baskets, and sculptures created by Epiphany students from kindergarten through twelfth grades. We even had a little butterfly visit the butterfly display! Congratulations again to second-grader Sawganyaw, whose artwork was featured on the cover of the ArtWalk map this month. Special thanks to our creative art teachers - Sra. Liss, Ms. Larick, and Mrs. Tomboulian. We also want to thank Steve and Sabrina Bengel for allowing us to once again install our exhibit in the lobby of the beautiful O.Marks building. If you missed it, the art from our Lower School students will remain on display until Monday afternoon.
Congratulations to Epiphany second-grader Sawganyaw! His Jean-Michel Basquiat-inspired painting is featured on the official Craven County Bank of the Art's ArtWalk map for May. Please stop by the O.Marks Building at 233 Middle Street in downtown New Bern between 5 and 8 p.m. on Friday evening, May 13. A variety of gorgeous artwork by grades K-12 will be on display. Thank you to Lower School art teachers Liss Corona and Julie Larick for their hard work creating this exhibit. And thanks to our Love in Action seniors who helped put it all together.

We'll have artwork from grades K-12 on display. Show them some support by coming out to see what they've been up to! Admission is free.
There was a ZOO in Founders Hall this morning! It was full of first-grade pandas, peacocks, monkeys, fish, and zookeepers (of course). Their musical, "Panda and the Moon," was so entertaining! What incredible singers and actors we have. Thank you to Sr. Delima for everything you teach our students.
Last week, Epiphany's choral music students and the first class of Epiphany dance students took to the stage for a beautiful concert. Thanks to Mrs. Rosney and Mrs. Roussel for sharing their gifts with our students.
What an amazing concert our instrumental students put on tonight! Thank you for a fun evening!

Congrats to the cast and crew of "Pirates of Penzance, Jr." It was a wildly entertaining show, and we're so proud of our musical theatre students!

We especially want to recognize Mrs. Rosney and Mrs. Roussel for their dedication to this production and to our students.

We are happy to share the news that 11th grader Cadence Hight has qualified to compete in the International Thespian Society's international competition for the second year in a row. Her musical solo "Screw Loose" from Cry Baby earned her a spot to compete at the state level, where she received a superior rating. The International Thespian Festival will take place this summer in Bloomington, Indiana. Congratulations, Cadence!

We have a magician, several gymnasts, a few instrumentalists, some singers and more! Make sure to mark your calendars - you don't want to miss this!
We're having a wonderful weekend at the NC International Thespian Festival competition at UNCG! Emily Haber and Cadence Hight are competing in the musical solo category, and Zabby Memering is competing in the Scenic Design category. Back home, Macey Coughlin and Madelyn Coble are participating (virtually) in the musical solo category as well. All five presentations are complete, and we're now enjoying tech challenge workshops and classes on improv, comedy, and stage combat. We even participated in a "trashion" show. We'll be watching a one-act show put on by students this evening and attending the awards ceremony tomorrow afternoon to see if anyone moves on to the Nationals round. Break legs, all!
