Biographical / Historical
[From Lydia Guertin, Class of 2024] The Outskirts are a Haverford-specific women and non-binary a cappella group, although they encourage anyone that feels at ease with the demographics of the group to audition. The Outskirts perform at least twice a semester, once with another Bi-Co group and once alone, along with two other collaborative performances with Haverford's a cappella community. They also enjoy regularly touring, hosting outside groups, busking, and fundraising for members of the group and the larger community. The Outskirts were founded in 2001, and accept new members once a year through open auditions for new "miniskirts." (March 13, 2022)
