Mission

Our mission is to entertain and inspire the people of Memphis and the Mid-South through the art of opera by being a nationally recognized model of artistic integrity, musical excellence, and community involvement.<br><br>Opera Memphis: 100% opera and 100% Memphis. Since 1956, we have produced world-class opera for the people of Memphis and the Mid-South. During that time, we built relationships with many wonderful local individuals, businesses, and institutions, who are now working with us to envision the brightest possible future. To us, that means strengthening our deep ties in the Memphis community, continuing to produce world-class opera featuring top-name artists, and increasing our civic impact. We never forget that our success is connected to our city's success, and our city's success is all about you.
