Our mission is to provide a welcoming place for <br />women to experience the joy of singing together; to promote <br />women's choral music through concerts, premieres, and other <br />performances; to perform and commission choral works by and for <br />women; and to maintain the highest standards of musical excellence. <br />On average we sing four concerts each year. Since the majority of <br />choral literature is for mixed (male and female) voices, our programs <br />offer a unique opportunity for audiences and singers alike to <br />experience new and /or rarely performed music. Our repertoire <br />features songs from our own American tradition as well as songs <br />from around the world. We have sung in more than 30 languages. <br />Our concerts and rehearsals are held in several locations in Chapel <br />Hill, including University United Methodist Church, United Church of <br />Chapel Hill, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Church of Reconciliation, <br />Chapel in the Pines, Hill Hall at the University of North Carolina at <br />Chapel Hill, and New Hope Camp and Conference Center. Overall, our <br />audience has grown to about 1,200 people per concert season, and <br />we have broadened our community impact through summer benefits <br />and other free performances. <br />Our audience is of all ages (6 to 80 +) with a slight female majority. <br />Although some of our audience members and singers live in the <br />greater Triangle area, we primarily serve Chapel Hill — Carrboro and <br />Durham through our performances. Since January 2006 we have <br />performed 29 concerts in Chapel Hill for a combined audience <br />attendance estimated at 6,500. We do not capture audience <br />members' addresses, but the concert locations are likely to draw <br />many Chapel Hill — Carrboro residents. Currently, 36% of our singers <br />reside in Chapel Hill or Carrboro, and more than 750 Chapel Hill - <br />Carrboro residents have joined our mailing list. <br />During FY18 -19, will No <br />your organization <br />receive operational <br />support funding from <br />the North Carolina <br />Arts Council or the <br />North Carolina <br />Department of <br />Natural and Cultural <br />Resources? <br />Organization's EIN 561938811 <br />Organization http: / /womensvoiceschorus.org <br />Website <br />
