National recognition for impact on community wellbeing
Brunswick Women’s Choir has been named joint runner up in the second annual Music in Communities Awards in December 2009.
Its selection came from 170 entries across Australia.
The 2009 Awards were themed around wellbeing, and aimed to identify local music groups and programs whose benefits extended beyond music alone.
The Brunswick Women’s Choir received this very special recognition as a result of their use of music and singing to promote social justice and reconciliation.
