Calling All Children Ages 5–14
The Oakway Children's Choir is a community-based, church sponsored outreach program. The Oakway Children's Choir welcomes all area children ages 5–14, including those from OAKland and WAYne counties, OAKWAY.
Music is a thread that weaves hearts together, a healing force that transcends boundaries, and a universal language spoken by all. Through the pure, unifying voices of our children, we lift melodies of love, echo harmonies of hope, and shine the light of joy into every corner of the world. In every note, we share our dream: a world united in song.
The choir season runs from September to June and includes two 15-week sessions with weekly rehearsals on Tuesday evenings from 6–7 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church of Northville. Sessions will end in a performance held at First Presbyterian Church of Northville. Each 15-week session is $200. Scholarships are available; contact the director for more info.
