Reach for the Stars

Reach for the Stars is an initiative, now in its sixth season, that allows individual patrons and their business or social organizations to sponsor one or more of the stars of Edmonton Opera's productions. Patrons may also wish to sponsor an artist in celebration, honour or memory of a family member, colleague or friend.

Sponsorship of these stars helps offset some of the cost of their fees, and allows Edmonton Opera to continue to bring world-class talent to our stage. The artists also tell us that your sponsorship makes them feel particularly welcome in our community. Edmonton Opera thanks all our past contributors to the Reach for the Stars Artist Sponsorship initiative.
