2024 Arts for Manitoba Indigenous Youth Fundraiser

Arts for Indigenous Youth is super excited to share that its Indigenous youth choir group have been invited by the Maestro from Carnegie Hall to be part of a chorus ensemble and perform Handel’s Messiah on December 2, 2024. They will be holding a fundraising event in September to help the choir group to attend.


“I am extremely proud that the Indigenous youth I invited last year to experience Carnegie Hall last year and see our Flin Flon Choir along with myself perform will now be performing themselves. It is an absolute dream come true to mentor and help aspiring Indigenous singers and to see them have this amazing experience,” said Rhonda Head, First Nations Professional Classical Singer who invited youth last year to see her and the Flin Flon Choir perform.


To help the Indigenous Choir Group attend last year, Noel Bernier, co-owner of Hermanos Restaurant & Wine Bar reached out to Rhonda to support. They held a fundraiser to help with travel. Many individuals and organizations teamed up to help send the aspiring indigenous youth performers to witness a performance at the world famous Carnegie Hall. This year, Bernier continue to show his full support.


“When I heard about the opportunity Rhonda was making for Indigenous Youth in music, I knew I had to be part of this initiative and fully support. It has been exciting and inspiring to be a part of this, it is so important to raise up and support our youth at this time in their lives,” Noel Bernier, Hermanos Restaurant & Wine Bar.


Indigenous Youth choir members are now practicing and getting ready to perform in December 2nd at Carnegie Hall. From now until then, a fundraising campaign is on to raise funds for transportation and accommodations for the group and chaperones to New York, New York where they will join other choirs to sing on this International stage.
