Our Vision
We see a society in which every person can confidently express themselves in song.
We see community bands thriving in every neighborhood of our city, filled with people listening and performing together from all walks of life.
We see an entertainment district in Vancouver that is safe and that serves as a place to celebrate the arts, creativity, and one another.
We see a society of every day cooperation and collaboration that mirrors the egoless wonder of ensemble experiences, bridging the gaps of race, age, gender, religion, wealth, and, yes, musical training.
We could not do what we do without the support of many, many local organizations and individuals. Our deepest gratitude goes out to them all.
Below is a list of just a few.
