About the Choir
The Gulf Coast Community Choir, which was formed in 2000, obtained its 501(c)3* Charitable Organization designation in 2012. It is a multicultural adult group made up of volunteer singers from the Manasota area. All have had experience singing with other choral groups, some have had formal musical training, and a few have sung professionally. Our members come together to support our community through benefit concerts.
The choir's mission is to raise funds for worthy charities in the area. The group has received many accolades for its work, including the Key to the City of Sarasota, which was presented to the choir in 2001.
