These monthly concerts have become an important aspect of the Grantville arts scene.

Judy teaches Kindergarten there, Jeff is the Minister of Instrumental Music, and Jim is the Media and Information Technology Director. Information on the Cleghorns is available on their website www.thecleghorns.com.
The Hall Sisters have been have been singing Southern Country Gospel for 35 years. Three of the original ten (yes, ten!) sisters are still in the group -- Dianne, Becki, and Tammie, who are joined by several nieces and nephews to form the current group. They sing both to minister as well as entertain.
