Gospel Choir WORKSHOP Series & Concert! All ages, backgrounds, faiths are invited to share in a musical experience of Joy and Community.
Ever wanted to sing in a gospel choir?
Do you start singing every time you hear "O Happy Day"?
Did the movie "Sister Act" or "The Preacher's Wife" make you fall in love with gospel music all over again?
This summer, renowned gospel musician and Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir Founding Artistic Director Terrance Kelly is bringing the magic back to Santa Clarita, and you're invited to be part of the music.
After a fantastic event last October that brought together old friends, new friends, and people who had never tried gospel singing before, we're back for a three-part workshop and concert series. St. Stephen's Episcopal has once again opened their doors, with Music Minister Josh Wenz co-hosting this joyful community experience.
No auditions and no experience necessary. Songs are taught by ear in the Black gospel tradition. You just need to show up ready to sing!
EVERYONE WELCOME! People of all ages, backgrounds, and faiths are invited to share in a musical experience of joy and community.

As a membership-driven organization, BLSA creates a welcoming space where Black law students can find mentorship, friendship, and professional guidance from peers and alumni who understand their unique experiences in legal education.
At its core, BLSA operates from a mission of solidarity and mutual support. The organization recognizes that Black law students often navigate distinctive challenges within legal academia and the profession, and BLSA responds by building strong community bonds that foster resilience and success.

The organization educates its members about national and international issues affecting people of color, encouraging law students to become informed advocates and change-makers. This awareness-building is integral to BLSA's vision of developing lawyers who are not only academically excellent but also deeply committed to social justice.
Serving the Los Angeles area, BLSA maintains strong connections with Black law graduates and the broader legal community, creating pathways for mentorship and professional development that extend well beyond law school.
