Opera Guild

 

Since 2013, Boston Baroque’s Opera Guild members have supported and promoted our vocal performances, with a focus on our annual opera productions. Opera Guild members enjoy opportunities to get to know our artists through individual meetings and intimate, opera-focused gatherings. In the 2024-2025 season, we look forward to providing unique and thoughtful opera-based programming, both in-person and virtual, for our Opera Guild members.

We invite you to join this group of fellow opera aficionados – through membership, or through sponsorship of Boston Baroque’s opera programs and events this season. Your membership will ensure that Boston Baroque is able to enhance its commitment to keeping Baroque and Classical opera thriving in Boston.

Please contact Katie DeBonville, Chief Development Officer by phone at (617) 865-3428 or by email at kdebonville [at] bostonbaroque [dot] org to start a conversation on how you can enhance your involvement with Boston Baroque through membership in the Opera Guild.
