Re-Engage, Re-Build, Recruit: Building Bridges between Community Choruses and School Music Programs

As choruses across the country re-open in various stages, we all need to rebuild in some capacity. Music educators in schools also face many challenges -- COVID-related and otherwise. Community choruses can build bridges between themselves and local school music programs to support mutual success.

This session will provide strategies that choruses of all sizes can use to build and actualize relationships with music educators with the goals of strengthening their organizations, their communities, and music education as a whole. Recruiting singers to your organization is a natural outcome of effective and intentional school support and relationship-building.
