Collaborations
Collaborating with community and other partners is integral to BCC’s vision of creating a social and cultural legacy for Boston’s youth, families and communities. BCC has initiated and cultivated partnerships with organizations that serve Latino, African-American and other traditionally underserved populations as part of our Neighborhood Choir Program, which consists of training and intermediate-level choirs. Most recently, BCC choirs rehearsed at Hibernian Hall in Roxbury, First Parish Church in Dorchester, and the West End House Boys & Girls Club in Allston-Brighton. These choirs draw diverse singers from Boston neighborhoods, and they also draw singers from the suburbs to the city. Through these collaborations, BCC increases access to our arts education program by deepening our presence in these neighborhoods.
