TRI-M
Virtual Performance
"This is a virtual performance by members of OA's Tri-M Music Honors Society, a group in OA that works to spread joy in the community through our commitment to music. Because we aren't able to physically go out into the community and play music we all played separately in our own homes, playing pieces under the common theme of Hope and Unity, something we all could use some of during this difficult year. We were inspired by all of the songs that we have played throughout the year that have brought us joy! We hope you enjoy our performance!”

Heather Morecock
To Heather, art means expressing yourself. Art should tell the story of the artist, or the story that the artist wants to convey. She likes the freedom of being an artist the most. There are no rules to art, and this is relieving as it feels like there are rules for everything else in life.
