February 14, 2009—August 9, 2009

Since the 1960s, the Amarillo Symphony and the Amarillo Symphony Guild have provided local high school seniors with a unique volunteer opportunity.  Symphony Belles and Beaux serve as ushers for the Amarillo Symphony concert season, assisting Symphony patrons and gaining important social skills along the way.  This exhibit will feature several gowns worn by Symphony Belles over the past few decades.
