Find solace in music and singing with a community united in love and hope.
This course is an opportunity for singers of all levels to develop new skills that will help you be more confident when you sing. You will learn about how your voice works, how breathing and posture impact sound, and how to bring it all together so that you will feel good about sharing your unique voice. Our hope is that this practical course will give you the courage to lift your voice more often and lift your heart in these difficult times. This course experience (valued at $297) is offered with a minimum donation of $99 with 100% of proceeds benefiting the Tacoma Refugee Choir.
If you cannot afford the class, we are offering waivers to cover the full cost, simply send in a waiver request via email to tina@refugeechoir.org.
Gain new confidence to sing.
Understand how your voice works so that you know how to improve it.
Engage in a community as we work together.
To respond to the impact of this recent pandemic, we are expanding our Member Services to address inequities that have prevented members from being able to fully participate with the choir. To build the organizational capacity for the community partnerships we need to achieve this, we need to fully fund our Member Services Coordinator position. This position would work directly and confidentially with members to connect them with existing resources, focusing on developing self-sufficiency so that our members can thrive in areas beyond singing. This will also allow us to improve our existing membership structure to better serve refugees in the areas of recruitment, on-boarding, and skill-building.

WE ARE NOT YOUR TYPICAL CHOIR.
The Tacoma Refugee Choir believes everyone can sing and should enjoy the benefits of singing. Many who had never sung formally find their voice and a supportive community in this very special choir. These unique times have deeply challenged us all but has also created opportunities to reflect and connect in new ways and to develop as individuals so that we can be stronger together.
