The community at large is engaged regularly through various Outreach Programs. We present an annual performance for children with special needs and their families reaching over 550 individuals each year, an annual performance for the blind and visually impaired reaching up to 60 members of that community. Other services coordinated by our Education and Outreach Department include a variety of free lectures, internships, on-line learning courses, teacher re-licensure programs, and a Youth Symphony Festival. A stand-out among Utah Symphony | Utah Opera's projects is our local partnership with local museums, art galleries, libraries, film centers, performing arts groups, and scholars, the Festival provides our community opportunities to explore an artistic theme using all their senses.

Code 711110 OPERA PERFORMANCES - Utah Opera performs in Salt Lake City's Capitol Theatre, reaching an audience of over 16,800. Utah Opera offered 16 performances of four mainstage productions this year. Utah Opera has a nationally-renowned costume shop, and features some of the top singers, directors, conductors, and designers from around the country. A Resident Artists program provides aspiring young singers an opportunity to refine their craft while performing secondary roles and singing in education and community outreach programs. Please see utahopera.org for more information. A prime example of the services we are able to render to the arts community is the value housed in the Utah Opera Production Studios. One of a kind facility, the Utah Opera Production Studios houses a team of artisans, designers, and skilled craftsmen who bring the art form of opera to life for Utah Opera and performing arts organizations around the world through its sets and costumes construction and rentals programs. The Utah Opera Production Studios bring the integration of all production activities of the Utah Symphony | Utah Opera to one resourceful location (Costume Shop & Rentals, Prop Studio, Scenic Shop & Scenic Studio, Set Storage, Assembly Bay, Rehearsal Hall) and allows the organization to utilize a business model which combines all aspects of both symphonic and operatic art forms. Production needs for performances at Abravanel Hall, the Capitol Theatre, and even the Deer Valley Music Festival can be designed and built with the resources found in this building. This has resulted in valuable cost savings and artistic synergy for the organization and the community.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesSep 1, 2022 – Aug 31, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$5.1MDeer Valley Music Festival
