Join the City Choir of Washington for an unforgettable benefit celebration on March 8!

American Jukebox: Celebrating our Nation’s Soundscape

March 8, 2025 | 5 - 9 p.m. | The Woman’s Club of Chevy Chase

Tickets on sale now through March 1, 2025

Join the City Choir of Washington and Erin Freeman for a lively evening of food and song with a unique American twist. Groove to the melodies that shaped the musical giants of our history while celebrating the finale of our annual online auction. The jukebox isn't just a music player; it's a time machine that brings the golden era of American music to life, making every moment feel timeless. 

Enjoy an American-inspired menu, beer, wines and sodas, and drive away the late winter blues with a fun-filled evening of musical performances, singalongs, and excellent company—all in support of a great cause.

Tickets are $200 ($75 for guests under 30). In addition to supporting City Choir, your ticket includes a delightful array of benefits designed to make the evening even more memorable. You’ll enjoy:

  • A cocktail hour with passed hors d'oeuvres; an open bar serving beer, wine, and sodas; a photo booth; and City Choir’s own version of a Jukebox! 

  • A musical performance by dynamic duo Kerry Wilkerson and Danielle Talamantes who will inspire us with American arias, songs, and duets!

  • A delicious dinner buffet*, featuring some of our favorite classic American-inspired courses – Bourbon Street chicken and braised brisket (Yum!)

  • A fun and engaging singalong session led by City Choir's artistic director, Erin Freeman 

  • Dessert buffet with tea and coffee to round out the evening

* Vegetarian and gluten free options are also available

Your ticket not only supports the arts but also guarantees a memorable evening filled with music, good company, and festive cheer!
