"For over 10 years, PAL has supported and encouraged our young people in the development of their talent and creativity as actors, dancers, and musicians. This year’s Sunday Showcase at UTC’s Fine Arts Center provides a well-deserved stage to display their artistry and enthusiasm. We hope everyone will join us in appreciating and applauding these remarkable young performers.
“This year’s Sunday Showcase is dedicated to Sonia Young, Chattanooga’s legendary ‘Purple Lady.’ Sonia was a devoted advocate for the arts throughout her life; giving both her time and expertise to make sure the arts were available to all. Sonia was also instrumental in establishing the Performing Arts League’s first Sunday Showcase in 2014.”
