2020 Elementary and Junior High School Honor Choirs — 28th Annual

Covid-19

It is with a heavy heart that we must inform you of the cancellation of the NJACDA 2020 Elementary and Junior High Honor Choir Festival. We really, really hoped a fall performance might be possible, but with so many uncertainties we have decided that at this point it just is not responsible to try to move forward. We certainly wish we could all come together and sing, but the safety of our singers, teachers, and audience members is of most importance. Click for full post and IMPORTANT details.
