Lincoln-Way Students To Perform At LLMEA All-State Concert

Thirteen Lincoln-Way students have been selected to perform at the Illinois Music Education Association’s (ILMEA) All-State concert on February 1, 2020 in Peoria, IL.

The All-State concert is composed of 1,500 selected musicians representing over 300 schools across Illinois. Students were selected through an audition process as a representation of the best musicians in each of the nine Illinois Music Education Association districts.
