DONOR BENEFITS
Support El Paso Opera
Your Donation
Great opera needs great support. Donate today to create opera for everyone, and enjoy exclusive benefits!
Your donation is integral to supporting our shows, our Education Program and our Community Engagement programs.
Why donate to El Paso Opera? We are a small non-profit arts organization that is funded primarily through donations. Many people wonder why we need donations when we sell tickets to our big shows! We all know opera is beautiful but did you know that it is also very expensive? If we priced tickets high enough to cover the costs of the show no one would want to buy them! We price our tickets at levels our audience is comfortable with but those prices will cover less that 40% of the cost of our show. We turn to donations from companies, foundations, and individuals to help us cover the costs. Therefore, we literally could not do what we do without YOU!
Thank you in advance for your consideration of El Paso Opera. It is only through community support that El Paso Opera will continue to contribute to the quality of life of our wonderful city.
