IASAS Cultural Convention 2014: March 6th – 8th – hosted in three different venues
by Kerri Fitzgerald
kerrif@isb.ac.th
On March 5th three squads of our top artists (totaling over 70 students) will depart for the three different venues: Forensics and Debate will be hosted in Taipei at TAS, Art, Dance, and Drama will travel to Jakarta and be hosted by JIS, and lastly (and this one is tinged with regret as we were supposed to host), Music will travel to Kuala Lumpur to be hosted by ISKL.Students have been through a rigorous selection process and have been rehearsing and preparing for months. Although only five Visual Arts students travel, another 25 artworks are selected to form part of the huge IASAS CC Art exhibition. All the delegates will be honoured in a special ‘Black and Gold’ Assembly at 1:10 pm on March 3 and, on their return, there will be an Awards Banquet generously sponsored by the Booster Club (Wednesday March 12th).
We wish our CC delegates all the very best for their CC experience which is always guaranteed to be intense, illuminating and exhausting! The ISB community is invited to attend the series of CC SHOWCASES beginning Feb 26th to catch a glimpse of some of our top artists (more information below)
