This is not an uncommon sight,with many picnickers bringing activities to enjoy the Festival groundsand the lovely summer weather. You can see some patrons gathering infront of the theater to browse our gift shop and pick up some snacks atthe concession stand.William Brown			The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo:	The young artists presents special performances including the Meet Me at the Pavilion series and Arias and Asides concerts during the summer. They select some of their favorite pieces of opera and musical theater to present the audience. This one took place in the Thaw Pavilion; you can see the paper globe covering the light over the stage.William Brown			The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo:	This summer, new signs were made in the festival colors to help people navigate the campus. Most have nowhere near the number of signs that there are on this post, which is near the Thaw Pavilion. Hopefully these will help people get around our beautiful campus!William Brown			The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo:	No, aliens have not taken over the Glimmerglass campus. Today there wasa welding seminar held in the scene shop for people to learn how toweld. I had the honor of attending and trying my own hand at it.

Here you see MIchael demonstrating someof the more advanced welding techniques for some of the stage ops.William Brown			The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo:	The other day, I was going around campus taking photos of some preshowactivities when I came across this view. I had been searching for a goodway to get a photograph of people under the trees picnicking, but it wasalways tough because the background would always be blown out if Iexposed for the picnickers.

The part that really strikes me though is how thetree trunks divide the image into four different scenes, each telling astory.William Brown			The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo:
