Smith College hosted the 42nd Annual Silver Chord Bowl one month ago inside John M. Greene Hall. This event is “the oldest and most respected collegiate a cappella showcase in the region,” according to the Northampton Arts Council, which co-hosted the event at Smith.
Among the groups who performed were the Smith College Vibes, who wore pins during their performance to demonstrate solidarity with the Northampton Tenants Association and draw attention to the Association’s advocacy for tenant rights amidst rent increases.
