  • GALA Choruses Annual Report 2019 Letter from the Board President
    GALA Choruses Annual Report 2019 Letter from the Board President 1969 was a pivotal time for queer folk as a bunch of drag queens and others finally had enough, fought back against a bigoted and corrupt police force, and galvanized LGBTQA people. A new louder, impatient generation of activists began to rise up. Recently, 21 GALA choruses celebrated Stonewall with the commission Quiet No More. I was fortunate to hear several sing this amazing work and be reminded of our fight in 1969… a battle to be merely tolerated. Over the past several years, members have asked if GLBTQA choruses are even necessary. After all, we’ve won marriage equality in the United States; we are portrayed positively on TV; many states have job protections; we aren’t just tolerated, we are celebrated! So haven’t we arrived? I say no. Fifty years after the Stonewall Riots, and despite (or perhaps as a result of) our progress, there is ON OUR COVER — a backlash. Hate crimes against all minorities are up. There have been over 20 murders of Trans The Twin Cities member people in America in the past 10 months. On their website, the Straight Pride Coalition claims the choruses join in with “inherent superiority” of whiteness, Christianity, Western civilization, and heterosexuality. Even in enthusiasm as we prepare a the lovely, liberal bubble of my hometown Palm Springs there have been hate crimes with deadly welcome video for Festival 2020. results. We are indeed singing for our lives! We need to continue our activism, but not just for the LGBTQA community.

  • GALA Choruses Financial Update
    GALA Choruses Annual Report 2018 Empowering LGBT Choruses as we change our world through song WE WILL NEVER BE SILENT 6.28.1969 Letter from the Board President GALA. Most of us in North America use it as shorthand for the LGBTQ choral movement. Many of us also use it as the name of that Festival we attend every four years. Like Kleenex, it’s a brand that’s become a common noun for the product. The nonprofit organization that is GALA Choruses Inc is, however, far more than a concept or an event. GALA Choruses is a mission in action, driven by flesh and blood people from our LGBTQ and allied communities. We work and volunteer every day to strengthen our member choruses, to make connections that bring our music and message to wider audiences, and to help build a world where all voices are free. ON OUR COVER — As the board president of our association, I have the unique privilege of experiencing GALA Choruses in action every day. Each morning my inbox tells me about our work: the teacher On June 28, 1969, a police raid of the resource center we are building to support LGBTQ students and trans voices, a chorus that Stonewall Inn—a gay club located on was helped by free assistance from our 411 program, the formation of a new chorus in Latin New York City’s Christopher Street— America, the plans for our next Festival in 2020. turned violent as patrons and local sympathizers begin rioting against As we take stock of the year, I gratefully acknowledge the work of our talented staff, our the police.
