Why Support Opera Carolina?
Teamwork
Opera is a grand collaboration – Artists, Musicians, Designers, Audience and Patrons!
Cultural Leadership
Every gift to Opera Carolina is worthy of an ovation! Charlotte is home to the largest opera company in the Carolinas and one of only 80 professional opera companies in the US.
More with Every Dollar
Compare our company to our colleagues in Miami and Nashville. You will find that Opera Carolina produces more productions at a higher level for less money. And, on average 70% of the cost of an opera is covered by ticket sales at Opera Carolina – higher than the national average. We need your help to cover that 30%.
Leader in Arts Education
Opera Carolina is recognized throughout the Carolinas as a leader in the field of arts education. Every year, our programs reach more than 50,000 young people in school systems throughout the Carolinas. This work is an important part of our core mission as we engage each new generation to foster a community that is culturally aware and enlightened.
