The Community Ballet Association held its 55th Annual Awards Dinner on Thursday, September 22, 2022 at The Ledges. The event honored nominees for the Virginia Hammill Simms Award and the Katherine & Richard Lester Award.  The Huntsville Symphony Orchestra Guild nominated Nancy Colin who was this year’s recipient of the Virginia Hammill Simms Award. Congratulations to Nancy, a dedicated and deserving volunteer!

This year’s HSOG Scarecrow will be installed at the Huntsville Botanical Garden’s Scarecrow Trail from September 3 – October, 31, 2022. Based on the HSO’s Spring 2023 Free Family Concert: The Composer is Dead – A Whodunnit Mystery for Orchestra, our scarecrow composer is decorated with clues for visitors to attempt to solve the crime. We hope you will join our composer at the Garden to try to solve the mystery, too!
