Jessye Norman’s U.S. hometown has named a street for the late opera star.
Students from the Jessye Norman School of the Arts in Augusta, Georgia, unveiled the sign honouring the soprano Friday.
They removed a decorative covering with the diva’s face and her favourite butterflies to reveal the sign for Jessye Norman Boulevard.
Norman founded the school that provides a free arts education to disadvantaged students.
Two days of visitation for Norman ended Friday. Her funeral is Saturday at an Augusta auditorium.
