Saturday Morning Arts has brought not only to me, but to everyone, the opportunity to be able to do what we like most. TAP gave us the opportunity to express ourselves, and have new experiences, giving us guest performances before our rehearsals, and having our spring annual showcase where we could share what we have been working on. On TAP, we would get the opportunity to share art with people who are passionate about it as we are. I think that for most of us, TAP was our favorite part about our Saturdays, going to Lewis Art Complex where we got to meet with our friends and Princeton students, often having fun between rehearsals and lessons. During our lessons and Saturday rehearsals, I learned that I always had the opportunity to show my talent without being afraid of being judged. We were always welcome and encouraged to try new things. We all as a community supported each other. It really is a shame that the program is being “paused,” since it really gave me and others the opportunity to take our passion a step further, where we’ve been able to express ourselves and the art that makes us, outside of Trenton. I’m really hoping for TAP to come back.
