Phoenix Instructor Directs Sold Out Musical

Russ Williams, media art instructor at The Art Institute of Phoenix, recently directed a sold out musical called "This Moment In Time.”

The event was sponsored by the Holliday Charitable Foundation to raise funds for a variety of charities that help orphaned or disadvantaged children. The evening's activities included a silent auction, a raffle, and the stage play.

Williams served as an early consultant on the script and later agreed to stage and direct the play. The event raised more than $12,000, which was benefitted the following charities: Compassion International, The Shrine of St. Joseph and NPH USA (operates the orphanages in Mexico and South America), and Phoenix Center for the Arts.
