San Francisco Girls Chorus

One of the most artistically accomplished vocal ensembles in the country, the San Francisco Girls Chorus is a center for choral music education and performance for girls and young women aged five to 18. Nearly 500 students participate in its Preparatory Chorus; in-school programs; four-level Chorus School; and Chorissima—the organization’s concert, recording, and touring ensemble that performs with the San Francisco Symphony and San Francisco Opera. The organization will use this grant to grow its education and performance programs, as well as reinforce recent progress it has made in the areas of artistic vision, internal capacity, and governance.
