Education & Community

Detroit Opera provides access to the arts for thousands of students and lifelong learners across metro Detroit.

 

We bring opera to you through: 

  • in-school programs and summer camps that help students build critical academic and social skills
  • touring productions in academic, religious, and community settings
  • free vocal training and mentorship for Detroit Public School teens
  • pre-professional performance experiences through the Detroit Opera Youth Chorus
  • free pre-show talks and digital resources
