501(C)(3) non-profit organization
Our mission is to preserve and revitalize the music and teachings of the sacred songs called “spirituals,” created and first sung by enslaved Africans in America in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Spirituals uplift in times of crisis, heal, comfort, inspire and instill hopes and dreams, thereby transforming individuals, communities, and whole societies. Our goal is to ensure that the spirituals will be passed on for many generations to come.
Focus is on Research, Education, Activism and Performance. Our 70-voice community choir is intentionally multi-ethnic, multi-generational; We provide educational speakers/singers for community outreach, and educational programming is available for schools, organizations, and special events. Sorry, choir generally does not perform at church services unless it is a special event.
