Summer is quickly approaching and Georgia Regents University Augusta students are taking finals and preparing for graduation. The Maxwell Theatre is also shifting gears. This is the time of year when we turn our stage over to the community. This begins with a splash. WJBF News Channel 6 takes the stage tonight with a live broadcast of the Golden Apple awards. They will honor 32 outstanding educators from throughout the CSRA.
The rest of May and June is a whirlwind of music and dance. Local dance schools bring hundreds of children to perform at the Maxwell Theatre. For many of them it will be their first time on stage. Others are seasoned veterans with ten to fifteen years of dance training. A few will become professional dancers.
The Garden City Chorus and Storm Front will dazzle audiences on Saturday night, May 4th, with tight barbershop harmonies.
In June, the building is once again filled with students. The GRU Conservatory Program invites children from the community to participate in music camps. Each week brings a camp with a different musical focus and every Friday in June students present a concert for family, friends, and the community.

Join us for a wonderful night of music performed by Mark Diamond, baritone and Lauren Snouffer, soprano. The program will consist of pieces from various operas and music theatre works. Mark, an Augusta native, and Lauren, his fiancée, are world renowned artists and members of the Houston Grand Opera Studio.
A goal of Cancer Sings a Song is to foster relationships within the GRU campuses as well as within the community. This event also aims to promote awareness for music therapy and the music therapy program at the GRU Cancer Center. All of the proceeds will benefit the GRU Cancer Center Music Therapy Program.
