The Fort Worth Opera, an institution that has not only stood the test of time but has also pioneered a legacy of artistic excellence, social impact, and cultural significance.

Founded by three daring women, the Fort Worth Opera has been a beacon of creativity and progress since its inception, showcasing performances that resonate with social issues, diverse cultures, and timeless classics. It is with great excitement that we announce our upcoming performances, which promise to captivate hearts, challenge minds, and celebrate the very essence of opera.

This season, we are proud to present a selection of four performances that not only pay homage to some of the most well-known operas of all time but also highlight the evolving narratives of our world. One such highlight is the enchanting "La bohème," a masterpiece that continues to stir emotions and connect with audiences across generations. Additionally, we are thrilled to present "Le medium" in Spanish, marking its groundbreaking debut in America and reaffirming our commitment to embracing diverse voices and languages on our stage.

The Fort Worth Opera extends far beyond the footlights of our stage. We recognize the crucial role we play in our community and city, serving as a platform for nurturing budding talent and fostering a deep appreciation for the arts. Our outreach to schools not only introduces young minds to the enchanting world of opera but also encourages creativity, empathy, and cross-cultural understanding. Furthermore, we take immense pride in being a nurturing ground for aspiring singers, providing them with a space to hone their craft and blossom into true artists.

As we continue to build upon this legacy, I invite each of you to join us in our mission. Your steadfast support has been instrumental in our journey, and you donation would mean the world to us as we strive to reach new heights of artistic expression and culture.

Together, we will continue to shape the cultural landscape of our amazing city.
