Boston Children's' Chorus will Perform Stay Out for Freedom

Named Boston’s “Ambassadors of Harmony,” Boston Children’s Chorus is internationally recognized for showcasing the talent and passion of the diverse young people of Boston. Join their Premier Choir and Central Intermediate Advanced Choir for a performance inspired by Ruth Batson, a civil rights activist who organized an impactful anti-segregation school protest in 1963. With this concert, they call for educational equity and speak from personal experience about barriers in the local education system.
