The Lawrence Children’s Choir was founded in the fall of 1991 by Janeal Crabb Krehbiel and her sister Marilyn Crabb Epp.  The original choir consisted of 40 singers from 4^th – 8^th grade and was supported by the Lawrence Arts Center for the first two years.  In September of 1993 the choir incorporated as a not-for-profit organization.  Since then, LCC has further refined its repertoire and attracted national attention.

The Lawrence Children’s Choir includes the Tour Choir (5^th through 9^th grade), membership held by audition each spring.  Choristers (3^rd through 6^th grade) welcomes all singers who have the ability to match pitch.  Cadenza (1^st through 3^rd grade) is a choir open to all children who enjoy singing. 

Capo is LCC's newest addition, serving local children ages 3 through 5.

LCC presently serves more than 150 children, ages preschooler through 9th grade.   Ms. Carolyn Welch is scheduled to replace Ms. Janeal Krehbiel as Artistic Director this spring.

The Lawrence Children's Choir, Inc. offers programs to young singers regardless of race or color, national origin, ethnicity, gender, disability or religious beliefs.
