A private Christian music and worship arts college will receive a contribution to its capital campaign from the presenters of a popular family music fair.
The Visible School will receive a $5,000 donation from Universal Fairs, which puts on the Delta Fair. An anonymous donor matches every dollar raised, so ”it’s really a $10,000 donation,” said the school’s Crystal Bergman, with Darrin Hillis and Mark Lovell of Universal Fairs.
Universal Fairs, presenter of the Delta Fair & Music Festival that ends this weekend at the Agricenter in Memphis, announced it will donate $5,000 to Visible School, a private college focusing on music production in Christian ministries.
Visible School, temporarily located in Cooper-Young, has been raising funds to buy the former C&I Bank building at 200 Madison Downtown, designed by Francis Gassner.

The Fall 2009 semester of Visible School will see the release of a new 2-Disc collection of intimate and corporate studio worship, featuring student-led worship and even some of your favorite Visible Media Group artists.

Look for that to be released in conjunction with the Visible Music Experience album.
Now, a bit about the current releases out from Visible Media Group! Jerod Wilson released his EP, WILSON on February 21, and it is available at shows now! The EP includes three new tracks, “God of Everything”, “O My Lord”, and “The Secret Place”. A little bit about Jerod Wilson from Visible Media Group: “Jerod Wilson is a man of purpose. In a world filled with rock star egos, overly produced walls of sound, and slack songwriting, Wilson is a breath of fresh, crisp air. This innovative songwriter brings a quirky, indie approach that leaves listeners taking a few moments to reflect upon the twists of life, love and friendship.” www.myspace.com/wilsonrock
If October was a color, I believe it would be orange. Everywhere I look I see orange. The problem with orange is that you can’t find a word that rhymes with it unlike the word scoop. Let me use it in a sentence. Here is the scoop from VISIBLE Media Group:
VERTICAL FEST 2008 in Pine Bluff, Arkansas was quite the day for VISIBLE SCHOOL: Worship & Arts College.

September marks the end of summer and the beginning of school, football, and harvest festivals. We approach October and the time of year when the season changes to fall and we watch the leaves turn. Sweaters and sweatshirts come out and we enjoy hayrides, bon fires, and corn mazes. It is always a great time of the year. VISIBLE Media Group is so excited about the offering we bring you this season that we will create a new month and call it Sept-tober!
