YPC is comprised of up to 40 LGBTQ youth from diverse socioeconomic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds-many from low-income families and low-income neighborhoods in the five boroughs of New York City.
It is one of only a few youth choruses of its kind in the world. YPC is operated jointly by Big Apple Performing Arts and the Center Youth program of the LGBT Community Center of New York.
