Mission Statement: Through musical expression, San Diego Women's Chorus encourages women's creativity, celebrates diversity, and inspires social action.

Established in 1987, The San Diego Women's Chorus is an open, lesbian-identified, community chorus that welcomes all women, regardless of sexual orientation, who are interested in singing and performing.
Current Work
We are producing the 25th Anniversary Sister Singers Network Choral Festival in San Diego June 15 - 18 2006, which includes a concert featuring Margie Adam, Rhiannon, Melanie DeMore, Amy Steinberg and Ubaka Hill. Also, our spring concert is a joint venture with the Black Story Tellers of San Diego.
History
In addition to two concerts produced per year, SDWC performs for numerous local organizations and community events throughout the season.

In 2005, we performed at the Women's Hall of Fame induction ceremony and the UCSD LGBT graduation ceremony.

SDWC was very proud to have received the Eleanor Roosevelt Award for Community Service from the San Diego Democratic Club in 1997.
