Excelsior Voices Youth Choir

Excelsior Voices has celebrated artistic genius and success in its first year of operation and is seeking support to strengthen its organizational capacity as it grows as a new member of the Prince William County artistic community. The choir fills a unique need as it is the only community choir in Prince William County that focuses on fostering musical education, enrichment and artistic development in high school and college aged singers. In just over a year of informal operations, the group has developed into a dynamic and vibrant choir that has enriched the community by giving free concerts and by providing a rich musical environment for the singers at no cost due to in kind donations. In addition to singing choral music in a variety of different languages and styles, members of the group have also performed solos and been student directors. These experiences celebrate their unique artistic gifts and nurture their aspirations.

Data

Policies and processes
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
