Building Community Through Singing
In March of 2014, Cassandra Vohs-Demann and the staff of A Place to Shine Music embarked on a journey to create a community choir in Woodstock. They reached out to the public via Facebook, email, posters and an online survey to assess interest in a choir. They hosted three community sing nights to give people a chance to join together for a fun night of singing. The response received was overwhelmingly positive which inspired them to move forward with starting a choir in January of 2015.
The choir has performed at the Woodstock Opera House, Grace Lutheran Church in Woodstock, Unity Spiritual Center of Woodstock, Deer Path of Huntley, the Raue Center in Crystal Lake, and was even featured on television in Spain! That popular quote “If you build it, they will come” truly can be a reality. We are so grateful for all the support we have received!
The Woodstock Community Choir is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Help us fulfill our mission of "Building Community Through Singing!" Your contribution assists with operating costs including the rental of rehearsal and performance space and hiring musicians. It is our hope that together we can make the choir a fixture in our community for years to come! Visit our Support the Choir page to make a donation.
Thank You to the Woodstock Community Choir Establishing Members!
