Looking for a few good board members...

The Vermont Opera Project is actively seeking enthusiastic, experienced board members to help guide the organization as it grows.
 
Our Mission and Goals: 
To bring new and rarely performed operas to unexpected locations in Vermont.
Our long term goals are to establish a summer festival season which includes one or more fully staged opera productions and several concerts around Vermont.
 
Our History: 
Established in 2015, VTOP’s debut concert was “An afternoon of American Song” featuring Soprano Suzanne Kantorski, Clarinetist Wesley Christensen, and Baritone Darik Knutsen at the College of St Joseph, which was enthusiastically received.
In August 2016, we collaborated with the Vermont Marble Museum as well as the Vermont Symphony Orchestra to create Orpheus and Euridice.  It was a huge success with Jim Lowe of the Rutland Times Argus calling it a “fascinating” and “a beautiful animated classic painting with music”. 
Orpheus and Euridice also toured to the National Gallery of Art where the Washington Post declared the action “a mix of the ceremonial and the coltish” and  “This ‘Orpheus’ is a remarkably unified work… (the) direction and choreography were also well balanced, as was the excellent instrumental ensemble.”
 
Our Board:
The Board of Directors currently includes successful business owners, entrepreneurs, artists, and non-profit leaders.  We are looking for professionals with a love of opera and a desire to help grow a vibrant young company.
 
We need you if:

  • You are passionate about the arts and believe that Vermont needs a world-class opera company.
  • You are willing to commit 4-5 hours per month to do board work: attend monthly meetings, assist with fundraising, and being an ambassador for VTOP in your community.
We would especially like to talk to you if:
  • You have experience as a leader on a non-profit board and would like to bring that expertise to our board.
  • You are an experienced fundraiser and are enthusiastic about sharing your skills.
  • You have expertise in finance, accounting, or the legal field.
