The Dubois County Museum is celebrating their 25 th Anniversary of their founding in 2024.
The public is invited to enjoy an afternoon at the museum on Sunday, August 25, from 1-
4:00 p.m. to celebrate the past 25 years and wish well to future years. The museum will be
serving cake and ice cream beginning at 1:00 p.m. Volunteers will also be on hand with
games and prizes. Facepainting by Ruth will also be on hand.
At 2:00 p.m. the museum welcomes the Celebration Singers. They will share their beautiful
music and share a special program.
The Celebration Singers were formed in early 2002 as a response to the attacks on Sep 11th,
2001. The intent was to share a sense of American patriotism and pride. The cantata I Love
America was performed at 6 locations across Dubois County in 2002. Our singers have
come from Dubois, Pike, Spencer, Martin and Crawford Counties. In our early years they
had about 100 singers. In recent years, they average about 60 active singers. they continue
to share FREE concerts at various venues across Southern Indiana each year, celebrating
God and Country in song. Beginning in 2004, they added Christmas concerts in addition to
our summer performances. In January 2013, the Celebration Singers were honored to be
invited to participate in the Mike Pence and Sue Ellspermann Inaugural Praise and Worship
Service at the Indiana Convention Center in downtown Indianapolis. Due to Covid
restrictions, they did not perform any concerts in 2020 or 2021, but were very glad to return
to full swing in 2022. Other than those two Covid years, they have been going strong every
year since 2002!
They are very pleased to participate in the 25th Anniversary Celebration of the Dubois
County Museum. They will share our program of Patriotic and Spiritual music to celebrate
God and Country with all of you here!
