Decolonise Choir - June 2026

Decolonise Choir is a space where POC can come together and experience the joy and the resistance of collective song.
About this Event

After a joyful and successful 2024 term (during which our choir held 40 members and performed at Decolonise Fest 2024) and some synthesis and collective dreaming, we are back and ready to come together again for our first 2026 summer session of joy, strength, healing, and resistance in singing together.

So come, bring your voice, share in the collective experience of harmonising, tap into the power of oral tradition, and have a good time!

What to expect:

• Somatic practice and grounding ourselves in song
• Building community - getting to know one another and create together
• Collective alchemy - contribute to and make suggestions for the choir’s direction, repertoire, and definition
  Manifesto:

• This choir is a space crafted for and by people of colour
• Collective singing is a radical act of joy, and joy is an act of resistance
• We embrace music as a balm for individual and collective trauma within the POC community
• Discrimination has no place here
• We demand and create space to celebrate the diversity of POC voices
• We all shape the tapestry of our collective sound
