Help Anchorage Opera ‘make beautiful music’ (on stage and OFF)
Enrich. Inspire. Educate. Collaborate. Anchorage Opera is building community…one note at a time!
When the curtain comes down at the Alaska Center for the Performing Arts, community building begins! We appreciate your gift in ANY amount especially as we continue to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic and grapple with the increased cost of everything from paint to personnel. Your donation enables us to connect directly with our community in new and more meaningful ways helping us produce and perform main stage operas, educational programs and community collaborations for which we will engage the talents of some 400 singers, musicians and theatrical artists approximately 87% of which live in the greater Anchorage area. Thank you for your support!
Anchorage Opera is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the EIN tax ID number: 51-0175124

As it was in the beginning, generous individuals and institutions from all parts of the community including the members of AO’s Board of Trustees, a dedicated core of volunteers, the Anchorage Opera Overture Council, and many others give of themselves and their resources to ensure that AO’s grand tradition of enriching Alaskan life continues undiminished.
