Rainbow City plays great music with an uplifting purpose

We're not just here to make amazing music in a supportive environment for all people, we're here to uplift and reflect our diverse community! We have the most inclusive ensembles in Seattle for musicians to learn and exhibit themselves through their art and to make the world a better place.
