This weekend, hundreds of students from our region will gather here in Marion as part of the Indiana Music Education Association’s 34th annual Circle the State with Song festival.

Nearly 250 talented young singers from elementaries, middle schools, and junior high schools in Adams, Grant, Huntington, Kosciusko, Wabash, Wells, and Whitley counties will spend the day working with guest clinicians — a chance to build their skill as singers — and then will put on a special performance together.
