Who: The students of Wechester High School of STEM and The Arts and YOU!
What: Concert, Displays of the Arts and a Science Fair!
When: Saturday October 31st to Sunday November First.
Where: The big park in the center of town.
Warnings: None.
The students at Wechester High have been working very hard to get ready for this day. Many hours were spent after school and on weekends with students perfecting dance routines, working on scientific presentations that go far beyond the usual volcanos and demonstrations on the electrical properties of a potato. There are so many talented musicians and performers and scientists in the school that it shouldn't be any wonder why they were showing off.
The first day of presentations leans towards the arts. The stage is set and used for different musical acts, dancers, short comedy routines that get huge laughs from the crowd. And there are art displays everywhere for people to look at. Sculptures. Sketches. Paintings. There's even a section dedicated to the culinary arts with students demonstrating some amazing proficiency with knife skills and talents with making unique and creative recipes.
All foods are up for sampling, and a few are up for sale. Buy some food. Enjoy.
The second day is dedicated to science projects everywhere. Marvel at a display of a working floating rail system, done by a kid who looks a lot like a much younger Jerry. There are presentations on energy conservation, displays on various and interesting gardening techniques that conserve water. Really, it seems as though there isn't anything these kids didn't think up.
So wander. Enjoy the various displays and concessions. Listen to some amazing music. Enjoy your weekend!

Day 1: Musical Showcase/Art Presentation/Culinary Delights - OTA. Prompts within.
Gwen really did miss performing. She missed the noise of the crowd, the energy of people having a great time. She missed the noise of being behind a drum set and the exhilaration of dancing with a group. So when she heard the school was doing a showcase, she signed up for as much as she could.
She signed up to be part of one of the Comedy Ballet Group and enjoyed the hell out of that, each 'mistake' flawlessly executed. About twenty minutes later, another group she signed up for did a choreographed routine to one of her favorite songs.
And then after a couple hours of wandering the place, she was on stage to really really show off.
Like...really show off. If people are watching her on stage, she is getting so into drumming. There's a grin on her face and when she can do so between beats without missing anything, Gwen is doing tricks with her drum sticks.
She clearly, genuinely and deeply enjoys drumming.
There might have been an eyeroll or two during one of the songs she and her group covered, but she's still enjoying it.
With her final song over, Gwen hops off stage and disappears into the crowd to try to find a familiar face.
But first...
[Food, glorious food:]
With her time on stage done, Gwen was looking to refuel. She headed to where the Culinary Arts students were set up and, with money from her jobs, bought a good amount of food. There was a chocolate croissant, a delightful chicken pot pie, a few Key Lime Cheesecake bites and she bought herself a bag of edible geodes for later.
It's the kitchen garden display that has her attention as she picks at a bag of freshly popped popcorn that had been topped with home-made butter. She won't be sharing it, but please come say hi anyway.
