Supporting Opera
-
Our inventive, high-quality performances of opera bring the art form to audiences in Park City and the surrounding area.
We are enriching our community’s cultural sector by enlivening unconventional venues with music. We perform opera in non-traditional and outdoor spaces.
We are forming partnerships with arts and cultural organizations based in Park City in order to cohesively add opera to the already-vibrant arts scene in town!

One of the best ways to support Park City Opera is to host an event with us!
If you manage a venue, please reach out to us at parkcityopera@gmail.com. We are committed to working with you to bring approachable performances to your community.
If you are an individual, we are happy to bring opera to your location and audience. Opera does not have to be fancy – you can invite our talent to join your book club, wine tasting party, or Pioneer Day cookout. Small gatherings are a wonderful opportunity for Park City Opera to share our art form and speak about our mission. Please email us at parkcityopera@gmail.com to get the ball rolling!
