Talent galore was on stage at the Cowichan Performing Arts Centre as the 68th annual Cowichan Valley Music Festival wound up its 2017 events with a series of highlights concerts.
Dancing, singing, instrumental music, and musical theatre were on show at first the Duncan United Church and then the Cowichan Performing Arts Centre.
Performers at many levels took the stage in their disciplines and many were rewarded for their efforts with bursaries, scholarships, awards, gift certificates, or other forms of recognition. Organizers also announced who had been chosen by the adjudicators to compete at provincial levels.
