Opera San José’s mission is to produce emotionally thrilling entertainment that engages our diverse Silicon Valley community while developing the next generation of opera talent.
Together We Can - What Comes Next
As our fiscal year comes to a close, we want to pause and say thank you. Because of partners like you, Opera San José carries forward a simple belief: that great art belongs to everyone, on our stage, in our parks, in our schools, and in the lives of the artists we nurture.
That belief now turns toward Season 43, and toward twelve extraordinary artists who have just joined our Artist in Residence Program. It is a true incubator, one of the few of its kind in the country, offering not only mentorship and mainstage experience, but housing, health insurance, and a stipend, so these singers can focus fully on their craft here in Silicon Valley.
Your partnership made this past season possible. Now it carries us into the next one. A gift of any size helps these remarkable artists grow, perform, and become part of Opera San José's story.
Thank you for believing in this work, season after season, artist after artist.
