The Princeton Symphony Orchestra (PSO) has launched its annual “BRAVO! Listen Up!” exhibition at the Adriana Groza Art studio, featuring visual and written works by thirty-two middle school students. The participants created these pieces in response to composer Andreia Pinto Correia’s orchestral work "Ciprés," following a creativity workshop led by artist April Zay. The collection includes a diverse range of media, from traditional watercolors and acrylics to 3D sculptures made of rosewood and yarn.
This initiative highlights the intersection of music and visual arts within community-based arts education. By providing students with a professional gallery platform and connecting them with contemporary composers and conductors, the program fosters interdisciplinary creativity and strengthens the ties between local cultural institutions and the next generation of artists.
