“I think it’s just really great to see that all these students who are insanely talented have a space where they can perform in a fun and casual manner,” Carolyn Kim ’18 said.
Audience members also said that the school’s extensive performing arts program encouraged students to perform at the Coffeehouse.
“It seemed like a lot of people who performed at Coffeehouse were also involved in a performing art at Harvard-Westlake,” Isabella Huang ’19 said. “I️ feel like being able to perform plays or concerts can give someone the confidence to perform again in a more casual setting.”
Prefect Council, who hosted the event, also provided coffee and baked goods to listeners as well.
