GMCW centers the LGBTQ+ community, celebrating the full spectrum of expression and human identity. Now four decades old, it has a national and international reputation for excellence, performing at historic events like President Obama’s inauguration and the signing of the Respect for Marriage Act. Its five ensembles offer over 100 community performances annually, free for local students, veterans, first responders, and other residents. GenOUT Youth Chorus, DC’s first and only LGBTQ+ youth chorus, gives young participants the space to explore music and social justice together. Across the country, in its Equality Tours, 250+ performers show that art can be a vehicle for change. A leader in the LGBTQ+ choral movement, GMCW knows that singing can be joyous, loving, and community-affirming – and that it can nurture, inspire, and spread a message of equality and dignity for all.
