Grande Prairie Choral Arts
Grande Prairie Choral Arts is a not-for-profit organization in the Chicago Southland dedicated to providing excellent choral music and to promoting and furthering vocal and choral music education. Performance groups include the Grande Prairie Singers, an auditioned mixed choir for singers over the age of sixteen. The organization also maintains various ensembles available for outreach in the community.
The GPCA regular season consists of three main stage concerts presented throughout the Chicago Southland. The GPCA includes singers from 27 communities and represents a wide variety of ethnic and religious backgrounds.
