Taylor Steele of Bluffton is participating in a cross-cultural experience in Great Britain, May 6-25.
He and other Bluffton students—most of them members of Bluffton’s Camerata Singers—are exploring various faith communities in Scotland and England. Many of these communities are countercultural, but others connect very directly to the prevailing society. At times, students will be joining other choirs and musicians in singing, as well as visiting historic sites in London.
