About the Atlanta Women’s Chorus The 60-voice Atlanta Women’s Chorus (AWC) is led by Artistic Director Dr. Melissa Arasi, supervisor of performing arts for the Cobb County School District. The Atlanta Women’s Chorus is a diverse group of all ages, backgrounds and beliefs. The group began in 2013 as the Atlanta Women’s Project, a small ensemble sponsored by the Atlanta Gay Men’s Chorus (AGMC), now in its 36th season. In early 2014, the newly formed AWC presented its first full-length concert and is now an independent choral ensemble under the Voices of Note organizational umbrella. The AWC presents three concerts and over six performances each season. About Voices of Note The Atlanta Women’s Chorus is part of Voices of Note, Inc., a not-for-profit organization governing the two choruses. Voices of Note is a catalyst for social change, providing an opportunity to be inspired, a journey to places in hearts and minds that have yet to be explored, and a voyage into the perspectives of our neighbors, teachers, siblings and friends. Both choruses are members of GALA, the Gay and Lesbian Association of Choruses, and participated with great success in the quadrennial GALA Choruses Festival this past summer in Denver. Programs for Voices of Note are supported in part by the Georgia Council for the Arts (GCA) through the appropriations of the Georgia General Assembly. The GCA also receives support from its partner agency, the National Endowment for the Arts. Other support comes from the Fulton County Board of Commissioners, Metropolitan Atlanta Arts Fund, the City of Atlanta Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs and The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta. Major support is provided by Atlanta Magazine, Macy’s and PwC (PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP). Additional support is provided by SunTrust, Ameriprise Financial, Bridge Catering, Brandon D Hunt Design, Dan Lax Media, Peachtree Battle Chiropractic, Saint Mark United Methodist Church, and St. Luke’s Episcopal Church.
