Growth Opportunities for Learning and Development (DBA GOLD)

"Vessels Vault" was established in 2016 with a group of talented teens in order to re-introduce original musical shows from the Vessels of GOLD Vault of Treasures. Vessels of GOLD was established in 2001 and therefore has over 15 years of shows that are worth showing to a broader audience.

Our programs have been developed around a theme each year by the collaboration of members and directors.

Vessels Vault teens ages 12-18 meet weekly throughout the school year to put together their own one-of-a-kind original movie from the script of a previous Vessels of G.O.L.D. show. Working with professional and apprentice filmmakers, Vault members will get a complete taste of the process, how to act on screen and then present in live and film form to the community.

This show choir began Fall, 2018 for teens age 12-18. A wide variety of choral literature and show tunes are explored along with creative choreography. This group performs single numbers or entire shows for the community, either in conjunction with other group presentations or as standalone shows.

Chrysos means "gold" in Greek. Gold has unique qualities and is considered precious. Things made of gold are usually set aside for a special purpose. G.O.L.D. is also Growth Opportunities for Learning and Development. Chrysos members are precious in every way. This group is generally for students age 9-12, and meets for 3-months culminating in an original musical theater style show at the end of each fall and spring period. They are learning to develop their gifts and talents and share at every opportunity.

Nuggets of GOLD began in 2018 to address the desires of students in the 6-9 year age bracket to gain some of the same experiences as Chrysos and the teen groups but geared for these young, but eager cast members. Like Chrysos, Nuggets meet for 3 months and present a show twice per year.

Memories of GOLD is a group dedicated to learning music and dance that particularly appeals to our senior generations.

Most of our groups will dedicate some special time to the most senior members of our community. We have received such blessings as we watch our senior audiences respond to our songs and dances.

We now have this group that is specifically dedicated to learning and performing the genres that are most meaningful to these special people. We invite ALL ages to participate in learning to sing and do a little movement to interact with our audiences. Bring the entire family out and perform at regular intervals throughout the year!

Aureus means "gold" in Latin. It is a group of talented singers, actors and dancers age 18+ whose goal is to perform entertaining and original shows, using songs from various artists, genres and periods; and original skits, written by the performers themselves.

This group will provide opportunities for cast members to develop their acting skills and perform for the community.

This is our community choir. All ages are welcome to join this group that sings from a broad sampling of genres suitable for mixed voices. Performances are currently limited to mostly in-studio opportunities, but will broaden as the group grows in numbers and experiences.
