Chautauqua Opera Guild
"Building future opera audiences ... together"
The Chautauqua Opera Guild serves as the advocacy group in support of Chautauqua Opera. We invite you to join the Guild in a membership category of your choice. Your tax-deductible contribution will entitle you to complimentary operalogues, master classes, music theater revues, artsong recitals, and special events. Only members can become surrogate parents in our Adopt-an-Artist program which connects you to the young opera artists and production interns.
As of 2007 the Chautauqua Opera Guild has given $184,000 to the Chautauqua Opera Endowment Fund and $199,000 to the Chautauqua Fund restricted to opera operating funds. In addition, in 2006, more than $7000 in scholarships and awards were given to deserving apprentices and studio artists to assist in their career development. Only through your membership and involvement can we continue this exceptional work in support of Chautauqua opera. Join today and become a part of the excitement. See you at the Opera.
