Choir Residency

Since 2002, Mercury Baroque has made school outreach a major component of its mission, and reached more than 3,000 children in the Houston area each year.  As a major component of this outreach program, our Choir Program represents a collaborative effort with five different HISD schools: Burnet Elementary, Farias Early Childhood Center, Ninfa Lorenzo Early Childhood Center, Gabriela Mistral Early Childhood Center, and Shearn Elementary.
Program made possible with grants from IAG and the McNair Foundation.
