DECEMBER 15 UPDATE:
WOW! 🎉 Thanks to you, we didn't just hit our fundraising goal, we blew right past it! Now we are only $900 away from reaching $10,000!!! 😊 Thanks for all who showed up at our Holiday Hootenanny, and especially to the Henley Family and the Justin Ellet and Kristiana Neff Giving Foundation, who each contributed a $1,000 matching gift challenge at the event. Both challenges were met that night, and we are so grateful for everyone's incredible support! 👏 If you haven't given yet, now is the perfect time. Help us finish strong and keep connecting our community one voice at a time!

Viola was non-verbal when she joined our youth choir 2 years ago, but she still loved participating. Her mom shares how Palmetto Choral Collective has helped Viola find her voice! We look forward to seeing her continue to blossom!

We need your support to be there for Viola, and many others! Please consider a contribution, by December 31, to help us continue building inclusive, welcoming choral groups where every voice is valued, empowered, and inspired to shine!

MORE ABOUT US

Palmetto Choral Collective offers multiple community choirs serving youth grades K-12 and adults. We explore an eclectic range of musical styles, and foster a fun, friendly and creative atmosphere. We work together to build choral skills and musicianship while having a lot of fun. No auditions required!

We are committed to providing audition-free, equal access to quality music education in the Charleston area through recurring rehearsals, instruction, workshops, performances, summer camps, and community-building activities for all members.

We collaborate with other quality organizations such as Charleston Stage Company, Charleston Opera Theater, Charleston Symphony Orchestra, Taylor Festival Choir, Spoleto Festival USA and Charleston County Public Library. We nurture musicianship, encourage leadership, foster inclusivity, and unite people in harmony, strengthening the broader community through the power of music! 🎵

We passionately believe that choral music education is for everyone, regardless of socioeconomic background or previous experience. We are not affiliated with any school or church, and we are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all.
