The mission of The Wilmington Children's Chorus (WCC) is to nurture and develop an exceptional Children's Choir for the Greater Wilmington area, and to share a love and desire to excel in choral singing, performance and musical knowledge.
We are committed to providing free and open access to all interested children, regardless of their financial, social or ethnic background.
