ABOUT

About

We are a non-auditioned, mixed-voice choir serving the 2SLGBTQ+ community of Kingston, located on the lands of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe, and Huron-wendat peoples.

Founded in September 2023, Spectrum Voices is a not-for-profit choir offering programming by donation to the 2SLGBTQ+ and allied community of Kingston, Ontario. We are happy to welcome in new members any time of year, with our season spanning from September to June. All experiences are welcome, with many members returning to choir afters years away from singing in an ensemble. Spectrum Voices has performed at events such as Spring Into Summer hosted by Utilities Kingston, Kingston Pride, and Trans Day of Remembrance.
