Christmas Concert
Sunday, December 19th, 2010
MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History
Sponsored by the General T. J. Churchill Chapter United Daughters of the Confederacy.
Presented by the Margaret Wyatt Piano and Vocal Studio, Kelly Ponder, Mary Katelin Ward, Emily Fenton, Katherine Greer, Hailey Weiner, Taylor Quick, Joshua Taylor, George Elrod, Lillian Williams, Niles Stevenson and Matthew Ponder.
The old Arsenal Building may not have experienced such a musical delight 150 years ago, but the ladies and gentlemen of the Margaret Wyatt Piano and Vocal Studio certainly illuminated the old walls, mortar and bricks of the historic building on Sunday afternoon, December 19th, 2010. The event, sponsored by the General T. J. Churchill Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy was offered free to the community and in appreciation to the MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History.
Visitors had the opportunity to visit the wonderful Civil War era exhibits during the Christmas season as a prelude to the many upcoming events surrounding the Arkansas Civil War Sesquicentennial.
Part of the rich heritage of the General T. J. Churchill Chapter was an annual benefit concert that was presented each year by the membership to aid Confederate Veterans. As the Chapter enters our 100th Anniversary year we are recreating a concert to honor the Veterans of all wars, both those who served and made the ultimate sacrifice. Additionally, we remember those who are serving during this Christmas Season and are away from their families and loved ones. We hope to be able to make the Christmas Concert an annual event.
Merry Christmas from the ladies of the General T. J. Churchill Chapter #1373, United Daughters of the Confederacy!
