In her Austin home, Sara Hickman looks at the beautiful faces on her computer screen and tells the story of what she did on summer vacation. She listens to a young boy named Jeffrey playing “Amazing Grace” on the recorder.
She was at the African Children’s Choir school in Entebbe, Uganda. During two weeks in July, she and photographer and fellow Austinite Lynne Dobson visited schools in Uganda and recorded a CD with members of the choir to celebrate its 30th anniversary.
