“Come Home for the Holidays” Winter Concert

StufferImageThe Syracuse Gay & Lesbian Chorus Presents
“Come Home for the Holidays” 

Holiday songs are endearing, not because of the music or the lyrics, but because of the memories that come flooding into our minds when we hear “White Christmas” or “Jingle Bells.” It’s these memories that bring us back home and into the arms of our family even when we can’t be near them. The Syracuse Gay & Lesbian Chorus welcomes you into our hearts and homes for our annual wintertime concert.

 “Come Home for the Holidays” will be held Friday, December 4th and Saturday, December 5th at the First Unitarian Universalist Society at the corner of Nottingham and Waring Roads. The concert begins at 8pm on both evenings. Tickets are available in advance for $15 or at the door for $18. Reduced prices for students and seniors can be arranged. Purchase your tickets online at www.syrglc.org, at Lavender Inkwell Bookshop or from any Chorus member.
