Madison Choir rehearses weekly on Tuesdays 6:30 - 7:30pm with Choir Director Anne Vanderbloemen.
AFA Madison Choir is for anyone who loves to sing and make music! The focus is on community and collaboration in a music rehearsal setting.
Participation in AFA choir provides opportunities for people with and without disabilities to engage in the performing arts while boosting self-esteem and de-stigmatizing the lives of those living with disabilities.
Many of our choir members have been with their choir for over a decade and rely on the socialization and structure that the rehearsals and performances provide in their lives. AFA choir members learn about pitch, tone, rhythm, movement, and composition. AFA Choirs incorporate instruments such as tone chimes, drums, and rhythm sticks to broaden the musical experience and maximize participation from everyone.
The Madison AFA choir will present a free winter concert on Tuesday, December 8, 2026. The concert is open to the public. Donations always accepted!

Person-Centered Care
At Arts for All Wisconsin, helping participants reach their personal goals is an important part of the work we do. In our classes and workshops, we practice person-centered care, an approach that emphasizes individuals' autonomy in making choices in fulfilling their goals and needs.
Would you like to share your person-centered assessment and plan with your choir director, so that we might better assist you in meeting your goals? Please contact us at 608-241-2131 ext. 202 for more information.
