Opera Delaware

5
OperaDelaware was founded 70 years ago by a group of local artists who wanted to make a lasting connection with its community. The goal remains central to the mission of OperaDelaware. Located in the heart of Wilmington, we serve more than 7,500 patrons all through Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland and New Jersey. We are the only professional opera company in the state and the 14th oldest in the country. We are a source of economic revitalization, and we are a source of arts education for nearly 3,500 students from all over the region. We employ more than 300 artists and artisans throughout the season and operate nearly a $1 million annual budget. Our young artists, whom we have nurtured, have gone on to perform in major houses throughout the world. We have been the recipient of major grants from many national and local organizations and have received numerous awards and recognitions including the National Endowment for the Arts, Opera America, Governor’s Award for the Arts, and National Opera Association’s Service to Children’s Opera award, to name a few. We are a company that still retains the founders’ original philosophy of “Opera for Everyone”.
