1. About the Newsletter... |
Voices sends out a newsletter each Thursday during the semester that contains important information and updates for chorus members. We also post the newsletter on our website - ACIthaca.org - in case you did not receive the email or if you want to go back to past issues.
The website also contains much more information about not only Voices but also other activities of the Affiliated Choruses of Ithaca.
The Voices newsletter also includes items related to the local music community. If you have something that you would like included in the newsletter, send it to EdOlmstead@ofpcinc.com - it must be in copy and paste form - Ed will not create the message for you.
