Who we are
Based in Vancouver, British Columbia and lead by Choral Director Cynthia Friesen, the Helena Choir is a community program organized by Health Arts Society with a mission to foster connection through the joy of music.
All singing levels are most welcome.
Through music we aim to:
Foster wellness and connection for individuals with cognitive decline & their caregivers
Create an inclusive, low-stress, intergenerational environment
Strengthen our community through the joy of singing together
How we do it:
We meet weekly on Wednesday mornings at Grace Church Vancouver for 1 hour of singing followed by 30 minutes of coffee & conversation. Fall sessions begin September 9th, 2026. For more details email helenachoir@healtharts.org
We do the occasional performance
More than just singing, it’s about connection, community, and the simple happiness that comes from making music together.
