OUR PARTNERS PENSACOLA CHILDREN’S CHORUS We work alongside these and numerous other partners to create quality musical experiences, foster youth leadership, and inspire our community. In January 2023, PCC was awarded a multiyear grant through the Escambia Children’s Trust , a taxpayer funded agency which provides leadership, funding, services, and research on behalf of Escambia County’s children to ensure they grow up to be healthy, productive, stable community members. Focusing on a target population of at-risk youth, ECT has provided membership for nearly 100 young people in PCC’s transformational choral programs. Since the beginning, the Pensacola Children’s Chorus has been closely connected to the Escambia County School District and Santa Rosa County School District . Members of PCC’s staff routinely lead professional development workshops and serve as in-classroom consultants for local music teachers. PCC hosts the area third graders each year for a special performance of Christmas on the Coast and was able to take Hauntcert to 3 different elementary schools. In March 2023, PCC partnered with the City of Pensacola to launch Pensacola Sings, a network of community choirs based in neighborhood resource centers with an aim to make singing opportunities more available to the city’s youth. Sessions resumed in March 2025 and will continue through the fall. The Pensacola Children’s Chorus regularly partners with our city’s leading arts organizations, including the Pensacola Opera , Ballet Pensacola , Pensacola Symphony Orchestra , the Choral Society of Pensacola , and Pensacola Little Theatre . These collaborations include full concerts, joint educational programs, and the exchange of costumes, set pieces, and equipment. Pensacola is fortunate to have such a vibrant arts community. Interested in partnering with PCC? If your event is for a charitable purpose, please e-mail us . If you’re interested in musical entertainment for your special event, our choirs are for hire!
