The annual PACE competition, sponsored by the Carolinas Freedom Foundation, offers a unique opportunity for talented visual art students to produce artwork depicting their visualization of a given prompt or theme. This year's theme was "Commitment to Excellence."

Into the Woods

One of Sondheim's most popular works, Into the Woods is an epic fairytale about wishes, family and the consequences of choices we make. This modern twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales told through song and dance follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk and Rapunzel that have been tied together with an original story involving a baker and his wife. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse and pursue their wish.
