San Francisco Opera Association

With the largest budget of any West Coast opera company, San Francisco Opera presents an annual season of nine productions for 180,000 audience members each year. The company also offers family-friendly programs, free opera in the park, training and performance opportunities for emerging opera artists, and in-school education programs for more than 10,000 Bay Area public school students annually. More than 3 million virtual audience members are served through simulcast programs and radio broadcasts, including 27,000 people that attend its annual Opera in the Ballpark simulcast at AT&T Park. With renewed support, San Francisco Opera will expand community engagement programs and implement a fundraising plan to ensure it has the financial resources to remain a world-class company.
