YOUR VOICE BELONGS HERE!
Introducing Open Voice Collective — A New Community Choir Experience!
Presented by Freedom Marching Project, Open Voice Collective is an inclusive community choir bringing people together through the power of music.
Whether you’re an experienced singer, have sung in a choir before, or simply love singing in your car or shower, there’s a place for your voice here!
Rooted in the rich sounds of Gospel, R&B, and Soul, Open Voice Collective reimagines familiar songs from a variety of musical genres through soulful harmonies, creative arrangements, and collective expression.
More than just singing, it’s about discovering your voice, building confidence, making meaningful connections, and experiencing the joy of creating music together.
No previous choir experience necessary. All voices welcome!
XPERIENCE YOUR GREATNESS — 2027
Find Your Voice. Feel Your Freedom.
Our inaugural 2027 program, Xperience Your Greatness, invites participants on a musical journey of discovery, growth, and self-expression.
Under the direction of Choir Director and Vocal Arranger Sam Soga, participants will explore vocal techniques, develop harmonies, strengthen their musical abilities, and build performance confidence in a supportive, judgment-free environment.
Over the course of the program, singers will work together to develop a collective sound, culminating in exciting live performances that celebrate their musical journey.
