Join our choir tribe and:
We provide choral music education and performance experience while inspiring a lifelong love of singing and music. We work together to build choral skills and musicianship, while having fun and providing connection and community.
We explore an eclectic range of musical styles, and foster a fun, friendly and creative atmosphere. We offer heart-centered direction and guidance, while also maintaining steadfast musical integrity. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all, regardless of race, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, color, national origin, religion, disability or age. We are an independent choir, not affiliated with any school or church. We believe music can bring profound inspiration to those who wish to make the world a better place. We often choose music that shares universal messages of peace, hope, love and justice.
We rehearse Monday afternoons/evenings at the James Island Arts & Cultural Center in Charleston, SC. Our choir season generally runs congruent to the school year. We will have one big Spring Concert, plus several other community performances & collaborations in December, May and early June. Exact event dates are shared as they are confirmed.

Our Space
Our choir rehearsals and camps are held at the James Island Arts & Cultural Center! This beautiful facility is located at 1248 Camp Road, Charleston, SC 29412, near the intersection of Camp Rd. and Dills Bluff Rd. The new facility was recently renovated from a former library building into a new space, specifically designed to showcase local artists and James Island's rich history. They offer many artistic, cultural and programming opportunities! They opened their doors in August 2021. At the helm of the JIACC is Mrs. Caroline Self, Director of Development. We encourage you to visit this fabulous facility, and explore their exhibits and other community programs and events.
