Holy City Arts & Lyric Opera Presents 5th Annual ‘Home for the Holidays’

By David Salazar

Holy City Arts & Lyric Opera will present its fifth annual “Home for the Holidays” on Dec. 14, 2024.

The event will feature Leah Edwards and Dimitri Pittas in performance alongside Alva Anderson, Fouché Sheppard, Dennis Shuman, Sam Stevenson, and a children’s ensemble.

“This event is about more than music; it’s about community,” Edwards said per an official press release. “Our neighbors have embraced it so fully that before we even announced this year’s date, people were asking about it to make sure they didn’t miss out.”

The showcase kicks off at 4:30 p.m. local time at BrickYard Plantation in Mount Pleasant, SC. It is free to the public and donations are encouraged. There will be food provided by da Toscana Porchetta Shop.
