The Columbus Gay Men's Chorus (CGMC) is a chorus located in Ohio. It was founded in 1990 by five artists. The non-auditioned chorus seeks to foster increased recognition, understanding and acceptance of gay men, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender persons. The Columbus Gay Men's Chorus was conceived at a Christmas party for the group Gay and Professional, hosted by Mark Cooke and Dan Huff. As attendees sang Christmas carols around the piano being played by Cooke the idea arose that Columbus needed its own gay men's chorus. The Columbus Gay Men's Chorus was founded in January 1990 by five individuals: Doug Althauser, Kevin Gary, Bob Germain, Phil Martin, and Jack Wisniewski. After months of discussion and research, the five incorporated the Chorus and began rehearsals in September of that year. Rehearsals were held at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church and the debut concert took place on December 9, 1990 at the Thurber Theater on the Ohio State University campus. Fifty-one men sang in that first concert. More information...
