Current Director of Choral Music and Artistic Director of Vespers Ben Hawkinson said, “There is nothing quite like the Millikin Vespers. The lights, movement and music make this an event that encourages reflection and introspection as we enter the holiday season. It is truly an honor to be trusted with such an important institution as the third director, in this, Vespers’ 63rd year. I am excited to share this program with the community and offer our theme, Into the Morning.”
