CINCINNATI - OhioPen -- (Cincinnati, OH) Cincinnati nonprofit SingOUT Cincy hosts its third annual SingOUT Cincy Festival. This celebration of excellent music and accessible experiences includes a multigenerational chorus, along with 3 intimate salon concerts highlighting individual performers.

From June 6 - June 10, volunteer singers (as young as ninth graders with no upper age limit) will come together for a 5-day festival choir to celebrate LGBTQIA+ composers and works - the SingOUT Cincy Festival Chorus. Over the course of 4 rehearsals, participants will connect, learn, and prepare for a free concert open to all on June 10, 2025 at 8pm at the Cincinnati Ballet. This one-of-a-kind approach to engaging with queer art in Cincinnati is in its third year, with participation nearly doubling every summer - and no signs of stopping!

In the leadup to the Festival Chorus, SingOUT Cincy is also hosting a Salon Series. These intimate, 1-hour concerts feature local LGBTQIA+ artists in solo performances and an artist talkback about the music, its context, and the role of queer art in shaping culture at large.

The SingOUT Cincy Festival highlights:
  • The role of LGBTQIA+ individuals in vocal music with both sung and unsung stories.
  • The need for explicitly queer spaces where LGBTQIA+ and allied individuals can come together.
  • How music bridges division within the LGBTQIA+ community and with the community at large.
  • The strength and resilience of the LGBTQIA+ and arts communities in the region. There is truly no better place to build something than Cincinnati.

Interested singers and audience members can RSVP at www.singoutcincy.com/festival. Participation is free, but donations are welcome to support ongoing, accessible LGBTQIA+ art.
