ALC's Signature Productions commenced with Gospel Voices of OC, an illustrious annual event celebrating diversity and community spirit, in honor of Juneteenth. Established and orchestrated by Debora Wondercheck in 2022, this remarkable showcase highlights an array of talented performers from Orange County and beyond. The productions not only elevate spirits with soul-stirring gospel music but also champion educational outreach initiatives. Since 2022, ALC has expanded our offerings with Music of the March, a musical tribute to Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King and the Motown Sound. Additionally, Sacred Sounds, Soulful Queens honors women who have profoundly shaped our nation’s artistic history through a multi-generational presentation by diverse artists, emphasizing the enduring impact and resilience of gospel music from June 19, 1865, to the present day.
