The Las Vegas Men’s Chorus (LVMC) was founded in 1993 by a small group of men who simply wanted to sing. Over the next 30 years, the LVMC found itself providing much more than music: a place to create and foster community and safe spaces through live performances. Social justice, inclusion, diversity, and equity are now at the forefront of LVMC’s programming. From humble beginnings of 10 members and 30 patrons, the Las Vegas Men’s Chorus now boasts over 100 active members and over 2,000 patrons in the audience annually at three fully-produced Mainstage Concerts with its free Community Concert Series benefitting thousands more. Patrons describe attending an LVMC concert as “experiencing joy.”
Although not specifically a gay chorus, 85 percent of members identify as LGBTQIA2+ and 40 percent of members have or are currently experiencing homelessness, addiction, mental and physical health issues, abuse, or incarceration. Almost 40 percent of members identify as BIPOC with age diversity ranging from 18 to 76. Membership has grown to over 300 percent since 2021 from 32 to over 100 members with consistent double-digit growth each concert cycle, showcasing our work is needed more than ever.
“When you are part of something special, you are special,” says Ryan Duff, Artistic Director. This sentiment is desperately needed by both our members and patrons, be it seeking fellowship after coming out or an inspirational respite from the chaotic world.
