campus has been buzzing for the last two weeks with 80 campers participating in Shea's Summer Musical Theatre Intensive.
Today's the day they put on a final showcase featuring original writing, characters, and songs created by the students!
This week we welcomed the cast & crew of the
@sjci
musical back to
@SheasBFLO
to celebrate their achievement in the Shea's High School Musical Awards program.
St. Joe's won in 7 categories & took home $6,000 in awards toward performing arts education.
Shea's staff and volunteers were happy to join the community celebration of Juneteenth. As we reflect on past and ongoing struggles for freedom and equality, we celebrate the collective resilience reflected in this year's parade theme:
...and still we rise.

@SheasBFLO
through the Alive Downtowns! initiative as well as additional funding for

Thank you to our volunteers. We couldn't do it w/out you.
