If you’re looking for dementia-friendly activities, Giving Voice Chorus is so much more.
More than dementia friendly, our choruses are created specifically for people living with Alzheimer’s, other forms of dementia, mild cognitive impairment, or undiagnosed memory loss.
Our choruses bring together people in the early to mid-stages of Alzheimer’s or another dementia, care partners, and volunteers.
Everyone experiences the same program. We learn the same music and sing together as one voice.
Even better?
No prior singing or musical experience is necessary. At Giving Voice Chorus, everyone’s a singer!
Giving Voice Chorus is a place of belonging and acceptance. Join us for laughter, joy, and friendship.
If you, or a family member or friend, are living with dementia or memory loss, we invite you to join our chorus family.
Singing is transformative. Singing as a chorus is community.
Come join the fun! It’s more than music. It’s more than dementia friendly. It’s more than a memory choir. It’s laughter, joy, and friendship.
