Over the years Bread & Roses has sung for audiences large and small, performing both on our own,  and with other choral groups. 

 

We have sung encouragement in the pouring rain to those walking for the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life, and braved the wind, sleet, and snow to sing at the ground-breaking ceremony for a special "Women’s Build" Habitat for Humanity project! 

Here's a list of some other ways we've raised our voices in song over the last 14 years.
