We amplify voices in our community through the arts.
We understand that art is where we can transcend boundaries of cultures, races, traditions, and social-economic differences. Through the VOICES’ programs In School, In Community, and On Stage, participants are empowered to be their authentic selves, feeling heard, and feeling seen.

VOICES Radio Hour | 6pm, January 10 on KDNK
As we approach 2025 amid uncertainty, VOICES Radio Hour feels called to action. Our vibrant valley thrives on its diverse mix of citizens and immigrants, which enriches our lives. In fall 2023, our community welcomed over 80 unhoused migrants, many living under the Hwy 82 and 133 bridge. We engaged with these newcomers, learning their stories. While the future of immigration remains unclear, it’s crucial to remember the humanity of those seeking a better life. We invite you to listen to our re-airing of Newcomers Think of Home, our March 2024 episode of VOICES Radio Hour.
Ep. 24, Revisiting Newcomers Think of Home, airs on KDNK Radio at 6pm this Friday, January 10.

Queer VOICES Theater Project | Fall 2024 at TACAW
The 2024 Queer VOICES Theater Project, Authentically Versus…, was a success! This original work of theater created by local queer artists and allies and was directed by Micha Schoepe. The project centered on the pain and gain of learning to be our most authentic selves. Through a full spectrum of artistic expression—music, storytelling, movement, and more—the show widens our understanding of who we are and how we can grow.
In Community
At VOICES, we believe that EVERY VOICE IS POWERFUL.
Our work focuses on those not yet expressed, not yet heard, not yet woven into our rich and dynamic social fabric. This work keeps us grounded during times of challenge, as we believe that amplifying voices through the arts is social justice in action.
How do we do that? We support the discovery of authentic selves with music, words, movement, visual arts, and devised theater In School, In Community, and On Stage.
Please consider a gift to VOICES to support a launch into an expansive 2025.
