The Rogue Valley Peace Choir — now celebrating its 22nd year — is presenting a concert entitled Be a Light. The choir — directed by Rob Griswell-Lowry and accompanied by Mikiko Petrucelli — is a community, secular choir dedicated to building peace, equality, social justice, and stewardship of our planet through song. The concert’s Be a Light theme is inspired by one of the songs in the choir’s repertoire that encourages people not to “hide in the dark,” but to be a light in a world full of hate, to be peace in a time full of war, and to make a difference where change is needed. Other songs in the repertoire express the choir’s passion for recognizing the connection to everyone in our community and beyond; for supporting social justice, diversity and self acceptance; and for treading lightly on our Mother Earth. The concert is free, but donations support the choir’s ability to perform for free at schools, senior homes, and community events throughout the year.
