Artemis Singers, Chicago's lesbian feminist chorus, will present its winter solstice concert, "A Midwinter Night's Journey," at 8 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 6, and at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, at the Ethical Humanist Society, 7574 N. Lincoln Ave., Skokie.

The chorus will perform "A Midwinter Night's Journey" on two nights because the group's Jan. 19, 2013, concert at this venue sold out.

Founded in 1980, the 35-member Artemis Singers specializes in music written or arranged by women.

Tickets for "A Midwinter Night's Journey" are a suggested donation of $15 in advance and $20 at the door for adults. Tickets for seniors age 65 and older and for children age 12 and younger are a suggested donation of $10. Visit artemismidwinter.brownpapertickets.com .
