Review from The Virginia Gazette, November 16, 2013
Our budget is minuscule by opera standards, but we can't cover it by ticket sales alone while keeping the ticket prices within reach of the community. Donations go entirely for expenses of our productions: we make heavy use of volunteer help. But we need to compensate appropriately our cast, musicians and creative team (stage and music directors). They are professionals who make a living by their art, and it is crucial for the health of the art form to enable them to do so. Please give generously. Our donors are recognized on this web site and in the printed program. We will gladly recognize our sponsors -- please let us know what we can do to show appreciation for your support!
Opera in Williamsburg is fiscally sponsored by Fractured Atlas, a non-profit arts service organization. Donations given to Fractured Atlas for the benefit of Opera in Williamsburg for authorized expenses are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
