The Women’s Canadian Club of Calgary
In 1985 when founder Shirley Penner dreamed of giving young people a chance to express themselves on stage, she could hardly have imagined the myriad ways this organization would grow and, in turn, allow its participants to grow. Through music, theatre arts, and dance, Youth Singers shapes leaders, teachers, and global citizens who in turn shape the communities they live and work in.
Starting with 28 junior high school students, the organization has expanded to 500 singers ranging in age from 3.5 to adult, providing its singers with a wonderfully diverse repertoire that spans all centuries and styles of music. Springing up around this core group is a vast community of families and volunteers who supply in excess 35,000 hours of volunteer commitment annually.
Youth Singers’ touring program has allowed our young people the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to showcase their talents across Canada and in over 20 countries on 5 continents. Youth Singers are wonderful ambassadors for the city, province and country and never fail to bring a smile to the faces of their audiences through their exuberance and passion for their art.
