THANK YOU

The Local Fox Cubs!



Hello Emerald City Opera Friends and Family
 
Only Emerald City Opera would give you Dido and Aeneas in the Strawberry Hot Springs Park.  Ok, you didn't quite ask for it... but surely you count on Emerald City Opera to give you things you never knew you needed.  Maybe Florencia en el Amazonas at the Strings Pavilion, or Fantastic Mr. Fox at arm's length away at the Larson Barn was the thing you didn't know you needed but were glad to experience and won't forget.
 
The unique beauty of our city, the mind-expanding possibilities of live opera and an audience of generous and adventurous spirits equals a future without limits for Emerald City Opera. 
 
Thank you for occupying the crucial part of the equation that you do, among fellow adventurers in our loyal audience.  Please continue to be there for us, helping us make great opera, which is only possible with your support.  I ask you to make a gift to the annual fund of our unique Colorado enterprise.  Your gift now will support the great things coming to you in 2017, like internationally acclaimed Metropolitan Opera superstar Michelle DeYoung in our production of Cavalleria Rusticana. Workshops with schools, partnerships with the Yampa Valley Autism Program and Horizons Specialized Services, so everyone can experience Opera. It will pay for incredibly hardworking artists, staff, and crew who make operatic magic with every dollar they are given.
 
Individual support has helped Emerald City Opera keep its footing through our continued growth.  Your gift would be a ballot cast for the place of art in busy, challenging lives, and a vote of confidence in Emerald City Opera's special place in our city. Our artists are considered leaders among their fellows in a rich community of art makers.  So grows the importance of your partnership.   Please consider a gift to our company and accept my sincerest thanks, and those of my colleagues, for making Emerald City Opera possible.  

Truly yours,
