The Market Street Singers continue to be active, despite the lockdowns necessitated by the coronavirus pandemic. We meet online weekly, using “virtual rehearsals” to learn and enjoy interesting and engaging choral music. EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN, ANYTIME IN THE SEASON! For details please contact us HERE.
Mission:
The Market Street Singers is a choral ensemble in Ballard that builds connections within diverse communities. Celebrating the joy of choral music among singers and listeners, we aspire to cultivate neighborhood pride with choral arts that are truly community identified.
Statement of inclusion:
We recognize that singing builds communities and brings us and our audiences great joy. We want to share this joy, limitlessly with the wider world around us. We therefore include and encourage participation by people of all races, ethnic and national origins, genders and gender identities, sexual orientations, religious backgrounds, socioeconomic statuses, ages, and physical and mental abilities among our singers and audiences.

Update on Statement of Inclusion:
As we enter the third decade of the present millennia, we join a growing multitude of voices decrying the tragic effects on our community and nation of continuing inequality, systemic racism, oppression, and violence. We cannot truly experience the joy of singing when others suffer under the destructive effects of exclusion and white privilege. We affirm that all lives cannot matter until Black Lives Matter. We will use our voices to create a world in which justice and equality are not just a dream, but a reality.
