GRC Summer Fling 2: Covered in Sunshine

Thursdays, 6:30 - 8:15 PM

May 14 – June 11, 2026

Hosted by Greater Richmond Chorus


Looking for something fun, uplifting, and completely different from your usual weeknight routine?

Back for its second year, Greater Richmond Chorus presents Summer Fling 2: Covered in Sunshine. This is a free guest program for anyone who wants to try something new in a fun, low-pressure environment. You’ll spend five weeks laughing, singing, and connecting with people who instantly feel like friends. You don’t need to read music, sing solo, or have choir experience. If you enjoy singing along to your favorite playlist, you already have everything you need to join us.
Over four rehearsals, our director, , will guide you as you learn two feel-good songs — "Cover Me In Sunshine" by P!nk and "I’m Still Standing" by Elton John. You’ll sing alongside chorus members who will support you every step of the way. On the final night, we’ll turn it all the way up with a friends & family performance celebrating everything we’ve learned together.


What's It Feel Like to be Covered in Sunshine?
  • Learn two upbeat songs in four-part harmony
  • Spend Thursday evenings doing something creative and energizing
  • Sing alongside supportive chorus members who help you succeed
  • Meet people who love music, laughter, and community
  • Get sheet music and practice tracks to make learning easy
  • Celebrate your progress with a fun final performance
  • Totally free — no auditions, pressure, or experience required

Why Singers Love Summer Fling

Last year, nearly 20 singers joined us for Summer Fling — many stepping into chorus life for the very first time.


"I hadn’t sung since college and was nervous to walk in alone. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming that by the second week, I felt completely at home." — Summer Fling 2025 Guest
Curious what Summer Fling looked like last year? Check out our Friends & Family Performance


Turn Up the Music. Turn Up the Joy. Turn Up the Sunshine.

You don’t have to be a performer to belong here — you just have to be curious enough to try. So grab a friend, bring your curiosity, and come spend five weeks doing something that feels genuinely good.
Come see what happens when you turn up the sunshine.
