Our History and more about us…
We are a non-audition group for adult singers, with a Fall and Spring season. Our membership grows every year, to around 55 singers today. Members come from all walks of life and span a wide range of ages.
The group has also been featured in the Hopelands Summer Concert series and Hopelands Christmas performances, as well as entertaining for many local clubs and civic organizations. Through their twice yearly public concerts the group has raised thousands of dollars for local charities, including the Cumbee Center, Helping Hands, The Children’s Place, and The Warrior Project, among others.
Another important milestone for Aiken Singers was the creation in 2014 of a Christmas book about Aiken (brainchild of member Judy Justice) featuring an original song by Diane about the joys of Aiken at Christmas, with illustrations by artist and Aiken Singers member, Jane Popiel. With Jane’s beautiful watercolors, Diane’s song lyrics, and a CD recording featuring the song plus other Christmas favorites, the hardcover book was a big hit in the community and raised funds for the Aiken Singers scholarships and other projects.
