    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.

The guide was created by trans* advocates and service providers with our peers and colleagues in mind. It focuses primarily on free or low-cost community-based resources and uses a definition of basic needs that includes health and wellness, peer support, cultural and social connections, and more. In making this guide, we prioritized resources that trans* communities and trans* advocates have created or established. We included trans* specific organizing and advocacy groups, support networks, and social events. We also included several LGBT organizations, culturally-based programs, and other services where specific commitments to trans* access are ongoing. There is no guarantee that all trans* people will have positive and affirming experiences with these services, programs, or groups, but we hope this offers a place to start. Furthermore, there are groups and individuals providing resources and support for trans* communities that may have been missed. Please consider the 2014 King County Resource & Referral Guide to be a good faith first draft.

Moy A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2015 Reading Committee: Geoffrey Boers, Chair Cathy Madden Timothy Salzman Giselle Wyers Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Choral Conducting © Copyright 2015 Wendy K. Moy ! University of Washington Abstract Come Together: An Ethnography of the Seattle Men’s Chorus Family Wendy K. Moy Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. Geoffrey Boers, Director of Choral Activities School of Music This ethnography of the Seattle Men’s chorus adds to the growing body of literature examining the culture of community choruses. The purpose of this ethnography was to examine the culture of a highly successful community men’s chorus with particular attention to the musical and social interactions of its members in rehearsal and in post-rehearsal gatherings. The shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices of the Seattle Men’s Chorus, the largest community chorus in North America and the largest gay men’s chorus in the world were explored. This research utilized ethnographic techniques in gathering information that encompasses participation in this chorus, including an account of aims, processes, rehearsal outcomes, concerts, and events. Weekly and production-week rehearsals, retreats, concerts, outreach events, post-rehearsal gatherings, general meetings, and other community events were carefully ! documented over a two-and-a-half year period. The data were coded, categorized, and analyzed for themes and relationships. The Seattle Men’s Chorus exhibited a complex network of relationships that may serve as a model for community choruses.

What gay men either didn’t realize or didn’t care about is that their reactions were different from straight men. Swedish neuroscientists, using chemical scents extracted from male and female sex hormones, last month reported findings that show the hypo- thalamus region of the brain responded Study by Swedish neuroscientists gives credence to gay-at-birth theory in a similar way in separate groups of gay men and heterosexual women af- ter both groups sampled odors obtained from male perspiration. staff photo Brain functions of the study subjects Members of Odyssey Youth Center applied their painting and carpentry skills in late May to construct the first motorized were examined through positron emis- float ever included in Spokane’s annual Pride Parade.

While Cal Anderson Park may be seen as the park the LGBT community mainly uses, the reality is that LGBT youth, adults, seniors, and families use Seattle Parks and Recreations services and spaces all across the city. In 2014, Seattle voters approved the Seattle Park District to provide sustainable funding for Seattle Parks and Recreation, ensuring that the programs and facilities continue serving the people of Seattle.
