Your gift keeps us singing

Support the complete opera experience

Opera In Schools. Mainstage Productions. Opera Around Town. The Studio Artist Program. The Florentine Opera offers the complete opera experience: not only Acts I and II (and sometimes more!) on the mainstage, but educational in-school programming, enriching community outreach performances and the Florentine Opera Studio Artist residency training program. Your tax-deductible donation supports all that we do in our community - from overture to grand finale.
