WILl YOU HELP SUPPORT OPERA IN ROCHESTER?
This summer was magical, and next summer will be even better with our main-stage production of Aida. As we move into our next decade, we need your help.
Before the pandemic, our ticket sales and other earned revenue accounted for 30% of our total income. After COVID-19, that number has fallen less than 10%. Will you help us bridge the gap by contributing to our Annual Fund?
Together, we can keep the music playing for decades to come.

About Finger Lakes Opera
|
We believe opera embodies life. out loud.
Finger Lakes Opera produces fully staged operas of the highest caliber, engaging with a varied roster of professional artists, directors, and designers. Founded in 2012 by current artistic director Gerard Floriano, Finger Lakes Opera became an independent non-profit organization in 2017. The flourishing Tomita Young Artist Program was reborn in 2019 after a generous donation, quickly becoming one of the jewels of the Finger Lakes Opera and attracting incredibly up-and-coming talent to the Finger Lakes Region. Since then, the company has grown tremendously, including a renewed commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
