Free Gender Affirming Vocal Workshop -Spring 2026
(DATE WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON!)
This will be a free vocal workshop led by our Artistic Director and experienced vocal coach with the assistance of members of our choir that identify as trans, non-binary, genderqueer, and genderfluid. This interactive workshop is designed for transgender, nonbinary, genderfluid, and gender expansive individuals who want to explore and develop a voice that aligns with their identity. Whether you are just beginning your vocal journey or are looking to refine your sound or technique this workshop is for you. No previous vocal training necessary. Bring yourself, your courage, and share in a community that values every voice.
​
Pop Up Community Concert-Spring 2026
This is a chance to come hang out with us for a short time and learn 1 song with our Artistic Director, your fellows, and members of SOLC, and then perform it for the community. Think of it as chance to trial run our group or to just, low commitment, sing with a choir for one day.
All this and even more to come!
Mission:
Singing Out Las Cruces (SOLC) is a mixed voice, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and ally/friends non-profit organization that performs choral works for the appreciation, inspiration, and education of our community. SOLC is an active member of GALA Choruses.
Vision:
Using the power of music to entertain, heal, inspire, SOLC gives voice to our community and strives for a society where all people are respected and appreciated.
“The first SOLC concert I went to 10 years ago opened my eyes and heart to see that gay and straight Las Crucens were not alone in our struggles, and that together we could build a loving, diverse community to create social change that honors our differences as well as our commonalities."
Trish Miller, 10 year Member
Committment:
Singing Out Las Cruces is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and respectful space where everyone can make
and enjoy music together. We are committed to supporting and helping promote the growth and success of
ourselves and our fellow LGBTQIA+ organizations and organizations committed to social justice for all in the
Las Cruces and surrounding areas.
