On the first and third Wednesday of each month, the VFSS hosts regular musical evenings that may include songcircles, open stages, and feature concerts.
Songcircles are casual, supportive occasions to share songs. As the circle progresses, each person in turn is given the opportunity to lead a song of their choice or pass. There is no pressure to perform or to perform perfectly.
Open stages allow singers and musicians to present one or two songs in a slightly more formal atmosphere. Open-stage performers sign up at the beginning of the evening for a spot on the slate.
Feature concerts spotlight the talents of one performer or group. Featured performers are chosen from VFSS members and from the local musical community. Those interested in appearing as a feature should contact the features coordinator via our Contacts page.
Musical evenings are held in the Friends Meeting Hall at 1090 W. 70th in Vancouver, starting at 7:30 pm. Admission is free for members, with a donation requested from nonmembers.
The VFSS also holds weekend retreats in the early summer and in the winter. For more information, go to our Retreats page.
The society occasionally hosts special events such as music parties; for upcoming special events, visit our calendar.
