For the past 3 years, Thai Bloom has been proud sponsor of the ISing Choir annual fundraiser. This award-winning choral group has been a fixture in the Beaverton arts community for over 10 years. Its mission is to share innovative and exceptional choral music while supporting local nonprofit organizations.
Under the direction of Conductor and Artistic Director, Stephen Galván, ISing Choir offers two concert series annually free of charge to the public. The repertoire features material that is high quality, educational, and culturally diverse. Free will donations at these concerts combined with matching grants support local non-profits. To date, ISing Choir has raised and donated over $179,000 to charity.
The annual fundraiser secures resources to cover the organization’s operating expenses so that every penny of donations collected at benefit concerts can go to worthy causes. This year’s two-night event takes place on Friday, March 4th and Saturday, March 5th at the Bethel Congregational Church in Beaverton. Doors open at 6:30pm for a silent auction and 7:15pm for a concert.
This year’s program theme is ISing on TV. It features popular theme songs from the “small screen” as well as a medley of tunes from the hit series Glee. Performances feature the 80-voice choir as well as individual vocalists and small ensembles.
