Artemis Singers presents Wildest Dreams
Saturday, Jan. 23, 2016, at 7:00 pm and Sunday, Jan. 24, 2016 at 4:00 pm
Artemis Singers (www.artemissingers.org), Chicago's Lesbian Feminist Chorus, will present a winter concert, "Wildest Dreams," at 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 23, 2016, and at 4 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 23, at the Ethical Humanist Society, 7574 N. Lincoln Ave., Skokie, Ill. (south of Howard St., west of Skokie Blvd.)
As we reflect on our 35 year herstory, we are proud of what Artemis Singers has accomplished and how many lives we have touched. In this next concert we'll envision where we want to go next as individuals, as a chorus, and as global citizens.
Founded in 1980, the 35-member Artemis Singers specializes in music written or arranged by women.
Ticket are $15 in advance and $20 or pay-what-you-can at the door. $10 for seniors (65+) and children (12 and under).
About Artemis Singers Still going strong after 35 years, Artemis Singers: Chicago's Lesbian Feminist Chorus is comprised of women with diverse backgrounds who are dedicated to performing music written or arranged by women. The chorus works to effect positive change in cultural attitudes toward women and women artists, as well as to increase the visibility of lesbian feminists.
Our goal in selecting and performing music is to provide an emotionally moving, spiritually and aesthetically uplifting, and politically motivating experience to our audience. We want to entertain, amuse, and educate; to highlight historical, political, and personal events and experiences common to women; and most of all, to share a sense of community with our audience. We put on public concerts once or twice a year, as well as performing at private functions and fundraisers by invitation.
Membership is open to all women singers, regardless of musical background. No audition is required.
We are a self-directed chorus; we have no paid director. Women who choose to direct Artemis Singers may direct one or many songs, and we may have six or more different directors during the course of any single performance. Our music is selected at meetings open to any member who chooses to participate.
