Do you love to sing?  Do you enjoy spitting beats and flowing in your spare time?  Do you wish to surround yourself around a group of positive women of color?  Do you want to get paid doing what you love?  If this sounds like you and you are 18 or over, attend the info session and sign up for an audition!

RiverSong is a new a capella chorus forming here in Asheville.  Comprising exclusively of women of color from various backgrounds, RiverSong’s mission is to inspire women from racially oppressed and economically disadvantaged communities to affirm their voices through song and performance.  Many of the songs we will perform are considered traditional power songs, spanning the cultures and histories embodied in the group.  As examples of high caliber art and self-affirmation, we can uplift our communities and inspire social justice through:

• Singing songs of cultural power and healing
• Exhibiting high-level professionalism and dedication to the art
• Demonstrating commitment and responsibility to the success of the group
• Being leaders and role models in our communities
• Getting paid at market level rates for our performances

Info session is Thursday December 12, 2013, 7pm-8pm in Hillcrest 17A.  Auditions will be scheduled at the info session.

Childcare will be provided.

Women who are also bilingual or know American Sign Language are highly encouraged to come.  Sign language interpretation will be provided.

I look forward to seeing you there!
