A Special Opportunity to Support RCC
Contribute to RCC by supporting the purchase and performance of music for our 2017 Holiday Concert!
In this time of increasing verbal and physical assaults on sexual and gender minorities, transgender individuals, gender non-binary individuals, racial, ethnic, and religious minorities, we need to find a time to heal from all the violence. In this season of family gatherings, we offer this concert as a time to be with OUR family. In the queer community (including our allies), our true family extends beyond those to whom we were born, it extends to our family of choice. Join us for a concert of fun and beautiful music to remind us all that we do belong, that there is a place at the table for all of us in OUR home. We are so pleased that once again the Edgewood Symphony Orchestra will be joining us to perform at our Holiday Concert.
