Avett Brothers Rock Downtown Sheboygan
The Avett Brothers November 8th, 2015 played to a sold-out, high-energy crowd at the Stefanie H. Weill Center in Downtown Sheboygan. This concert marked the second performance of Season Three of The Étude Sessions and the first held at the venue.
Pictures from the show are here! We have our photos from the show and are very thankful to Phil Bock of the Sheboygan Press for also sharing his images with us. He wrote a very nice piece about the concert and the origins of The Étude Sessions. If you haven't already read it, do check it out!
We'd like to extend another huge thank you to our Season Three sponsors. With their support, we are able to continue to bring big-name bands like the Avett Brothers, Indie favorites like PHOX, and up-and-coming talent like We Are the Willows and more. Please support them and us. We can't wait to share with you what's ahead!
Next up, The Étude Sessions will return to Paradigm Coffee and Music with the Americana-Blues sounds of Hayward Williams and his band. We'll have 8th St. Ale Haus beer and wine available and the opportunity to listen and engage with the music, the artist, and each other. Tickets are available online at Brown Paper Tickets or in person at Paradigm.

Community Art Project at ESAA: The Process of Building Identity through Color, Shapes, and Symbols
If you have recently gone through Door 8, the door at the very back of the school, you may have noticed a new work of art on the wall. This piece was created by each ESAA student to represent the school as a group of individuals, classrooms and the school community as a whole. This was the first time a school-wide art project has been attempted at ESAA using observations and thinking routines with a professional work of art as inspiration.
