Annual Giving
OCP’s world-class productions and community programs are made possible by the generosity of our donors. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference:
-
Your gift of $25 sponsors a student in our Sounds of Learning™ education program, which brings nearly 5,000 students to the Academy of Music each year to see their first opera.
-
Your gift of $75 enables us to purchase the musical score used by our singers, stage managers, and music staff to prepare an opera.
-
Your gift of $500 pays for the surtitles to be projected during each show, ensuring that no one misses a word.
-
Your gift of $1,000 pays for the material used to make the sumptuous period costumes you’ll see in Manon Lescaut.
