Choral and Band Events
Whether you have previous choir experience or just love to sing, we are always looking for new voices! The SIC Concert Choir and the SIC Community Chorus hold several performances each year in the George T. Dennis Visual & Performing Art Center. Additionally, there are a number of opportunities to perform in musicals either onstage or in the pit, or you can participate in the SIC Concert Band. Private vocal and instrumental instruction are also available.
