Partnering with Harmony Foundation, the Association of International Barbershop Quartet Champions (AIC) created the AIC Outreach Program in 2020. With a focus on Underserved Communities and Youth Educational Outreach, the program provides grants to Local and Regional organizations, enabling them to hire the best barbershop quartets in the world, not only to perform in the local communities, but to provide impactful Outreach in those communities.
Since the AIC Outreach Program launched in late 2021,
there have been 20 events, benefiting:
15 Chapters and
8 Districts
5,000+ middle school, high school, and college students
50+ area schools and music educators
12 participating AIC Quartets
INSPIRING A LOVE OF BARBERSHOP HARMONY
Sheet Music and Learning Tracks are provided to educators and students.
