HANCEVILLE, Ala. — The Wallace State Fine and Performing Arts program will stage its annual Christmas Spectacular on Thursday, Dec. 5, at 7 p.m. in the Betty Leeth Haynes Theatre. Admission is free and open to the public.
A wide variety of musical styles will be featured during the performance, as the Wallace State Jazz Band, Concert Band, Singers and Choir come together to perform Christmas classics, with a special appearance by SingKids!, a group of students in grades 3-8 who are participating in the Fall 2019 ArtsKids! program.
