We invite you to help Gulfshore Opera’s bottom line by hosting a visiting performer. Only a few opera singers reside in Southwest Florida, so we must house 95% of our vocal soloists.
We are known for artistic excellence and hospitality. You can contribute much to our success by housing a visiting opera performer or director for two weeks in mid – late February and/or early- mid March! Or house an orchestra member for a few days around La Bohème (March 13th and 18th).
