About this Event

Music Speaks! Gospel Music Workshop Vol. 4

Gospel Community Choir Edition

Are you ready to experience our vibrant Community Gospel Choir Workshop? You are in for something truly spectacular. Joy In The City Guelph, in collaboration with the Guelph Black Heritage Society, presents our next workshop: The Juneteenth Community Gospel Choir Experience, led by our Artistic Director & Choir Director, Verese Vassell-Bowen.

Registered participants will dive into a fully hands-on session where you won’t just learn about Gospel Music, you’ll perform it. From vocal techniques and harmonies, you’ll be guided every step of the way.

If you’re curious about Gospel Music or want to try singing in a group, this is a chance to step in and experience it for yourself. If you've attended any of our workshops, you'll now get the opportunity to put together all the elements you've learned, for example, listening and blending, singing 3-part harmonies, learning songs by ear in a relaxed, supportive environment, and building confidence and connection as the music and voices come together.

At the end, you’ll come together in a powerful group performance, experiencing the joy of singing Gospel Music as a choir. All-level skills singers are welcome.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community supporters and partners, our 10 + 10 Campaign, we’re thrilled to bring this special event to life for everyone to enjoy! Admission is completely free. If you wish to support our work further, you are welcome to donate $20 and up visit our website https://joyinthecityguelph.ca/donate/. Every contribution helps us continue creating meaningful programs and events for our community.


Spaces are limited; registration is required.
