Singing is the most accessible branch of the <br />performing arts and requires no special equipment—we all own our <br />own instruments! Participating in a chorus is a community building <br />activ ity that enables people to blend their v oices with others, <br />increase their confidence, and work as a team. Music prov es time <br />and time again that it is able to cross cultural boundaries and bridge <br />social div ides. It is truly the univ ersal language: a language of <br />inclusiv ity, connection, and joy. <br />Founded in 2011, CCP’s programs offer educational opportunities of <br />the highest quality for middle and high school-age students—as well <br />as programs for adults—to come together and sing. Our adult <br />program is called PopUp Chorus and welcomes anyone to <br />participate, regardless of skill or experience. Our youth programs, <br />run in affiliation with the Department of Music at UNC-Chapel Hill, offer <br />our young students an immersiv e experience to help them build <br />skills as singers. <br />W e harness the power of music to create inclusiv e, div erse <br />community where music-making can be the domain of all, not just a <br />certain few. <br />Provide a brief <br />description of your <br />pre-pandemic core <br />arts-related <br />Community Chorus Project (CCP) has been offering educational <br />opportunities to middle and high school-age students since our <br />inception in 2011.
