How Newport Sings is Fostering Community Through Music

Music has an extraordinary ability to connect people, and Newport Sings is all about harnessing that power to build community. Our choral performances go beyond just entertainment—they bring together individuals from all walks of life, creating a shared experience that resonates long after the final note is sung. From residents to visitors, our performances offer a chance to unite through the universal language of music. Let’s dive into how Newport Sings uses the power of song to foster community in Newport.

Music can transcend barriers, and our performances do just that. Every Newport Sings event offers an opportunity for people to come together, whether as audience members or choir participants. These shared moments of musical beauty create lasting bonds within the community.


Why It Matters: In an increasingly fragmented world, communal experiences like our performances help bring people closer. It’s more than just listening to music—it’s about creating a sense of togetherness through the arts.

Our commitment to inclusivity is at the core of Newport Sings. We believe that music is for everyone, and we work hard to create a welcoming environment where anyone can feel comfortable participating, whether they’re performing or enjoying from the audience.


Fun Fact: Many of our members have found a sense of belonging they never expected by being part of our choir. The act of singing together builds a strong sense of unity and support, both on and off the stage.
