• Queer Joy Chorus

    The Queer Joy Collaborative is dedicated to promoting individual and collective queer joy primarily through the transformational and healing power of art, music, and mutual aid.

     The Collaborative celebrates diversity and elevates queer voices, nurturing collective strength and solidarity.

    Our initial focus will be the creation of the Queer Joy Chorus and a Kids Chorus. Learn More about the kids chorus!

  • Rhythm + Radiance Kids Chorus

    In January, 2025 we will be launching the Rhythm & Radiance Kids Chorus! Like the Queer Joy Chorus, this will be a space for building community, finding joy in singing, and accepting all people. We’ll chose our music together, centering music that kids love to sing. We’ll learn about music-making together as well in a supportive, fun environment.

Dedicated to Queer Joy

  • Dream it.

    Queer Joy Collaborative grew out of the Northampton Community Music Center Pride Chorus and exists as an example of NCMC’s accomplished incubation of important and timely community programming. We dreamed of growing our chorus and other programming to foster and support queer joy through arts and mutual aid.

    Dream with Us

  • Build it.

    Queer Joy Collaborative was founded in June of 2024 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with the mission of promoting queer joy through the healing power of the arts and mutual aid. We have a six-member board of directors, and four committees: Fundraising, Financial, Events Planning, and Accessibility.

  • Grow it.

    QJC launched with the QJC Chorus in September 2024. In January of 2025, we added the Rhythm & Radiance Kids Chorus, and one all-day writing workshop, and we have already started planning programming through June 2025.

    Our core values also include paying staff a living wage, and offering programs that are accessible to people of all abilities.
