Founded by Janet Stodd in 1988, the ensemble performs concerts under her direction every term, both on and off campus.
Favorite performances include the annual Joy of Christmas event in Andover, Illinois, and the annual St. Patrick's Day Concert. The Augustana Flute Choir has performed at the Iowa Flute Festival and the IMEA festival in Peoria, Illinois.
