Work With Us

We're always looking for exceptional and dedicated people to join our team.

For more than 65 years, Uniting Voices has worked to inspire, unite and change the lives of youth through music. 

Uniting Voices Lexington launched in fall 2023 as the first local chapter outside of Chicago for Uniting Voices, an organization founded at the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement and rooted in the belief that music is a vehicle for fostering empathy and respect between young people of all lived experiences.

Uniting Voices Lexington serves the entire city through a citywide ensemble and school-based programs. Our singers bridge cultural and economic divides and become ambassadors for peace.

About Uniting Voices Lexington

Uniting Voices Lexington empowers and unites youth from diverse backgrounds to find their voice and celebrate their common humanity through the power of music.

Uniting Voices Lexington offers performance-based learning built around innovative creative partnerships and compelling artistic endeavors. The organization develops programs that intentionally embrace the diversity of the Bluegrass region, making a high caliber music education available to any singer who wants it.

“OTR” Life Experience

We know that many of your most character-building experiences — where resilience, grit and grace were required to persevere — do not show up neatly on a resume. So, we want to hear some of those “OTR” (“off the resume”) moments for you. In order to be on the Uniting Voices Lexington team, EQ (Emotional Intelligence) is not a nice-to-have…it’s a must. So, show us your EQ.

A Not-So-Fun Fact:

We know research tells us that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60 percent of the criteria, women and people of color tend to only apply when they feel they’ve checked every single box. If you are unsure that you’ve checked every box in these descriptions, but you think you have what it takes to enhance the Uniting Voices Lexington as we grow our team—we want to hear from you.
