NEW!
Here's a novel and fun way to help Longwood:

Take part in, or sponsor, a fund-raiser!

 

 

Kristina Cook, local make-up artist and diet and nutrition specialist (and former Longwood Opera "Cherubino") is starting off this new plan by offering

Make-up parties!

What's a Make-up Party?

If you're looking for sheet music, we recommend Sheet Music Plus. They have the world's largest selection, guaranteed low prices, and great customer service. And every time you buy from them through this link, you are donating to Longwood Opera!

Matching Grants

We receive matching grant funds from IBM, John Hancock, Verizon, and The Home Depot. There's where you and your company take the stage!

If you are an employee of:

IBM
John Hancock
Verizon
The Home Depot

and you would like to participate in this opportunity to see your donation doubled, contact us at

Corporate_grants@LongwoodOpera.org

and tell us which company you work for.

If you would like to see your own company take part in this opportunity to help the arts, ask your administrators to contact us at

Corporate_grants@LongwoodOpera.org

and sign up to provide matching funds. That way, any gift you give to Longwood can be doubled by your company's donation. Tell them what a great tax write-off they'll be getting! Tell them about the great cause they're supporting!

Tell your company that you, and they, have become
Stars of Longwood Opera!

Of course, we are happy to accept un-doubled donations:

- or just mail your tax-deductable donation to:

Longwood Opera
42 Hawthorne Ave.
Needham, MA 02492-3806

In the interest of Opera For All, we don't charge down-town prices for tickets - our top price is $20.

But, even with our usual sold-out houses, that doesn't bring in enough to make it possible for us to put on our full productions, which include singers, accompanists, costumes, sets, props, programs - not to mention a stage, as well as chairs for an audience!
