One of Girls Choral Academy beliefs is that through music, we can forge meaningful, empathic connections with people from every background. Through regional, national and international travel,  we embrace performance as a powerful means of expressing our unique experiences while learning about the lives of people different from us. GCA tours  make "thinking globally" possible to singers; some of whom have never left Grand Rapids.  Travel encourages them to build bonds far beyond their home communities and empowers them with skills to become confident leaders for tomorrow.   

 

It is important to us that each choir have the opportunity to travel and form bonds with no only one another, but with others form new backgrounds as they perform in new places.

 

These tours give choristers the opportunity to share their music with a broader audience as well as to develop relationships and collaboration skills necessary to work productively as a group.
