We have four scheduled concerts per year in Dodd Auditorium and we sometimes have other optional performances throughout the community. The Fredericksburg Singers have performed at the White House, the National Gallery of Art, and the Pageant of Peace in Washington, DC. We also like to take a fall weekend tour; past tours have included Williamsburg, Virginia, and Asheville, North Carolina.
