Become a Personal “Friend” of Fresno Grand Opera!

Your involvement makes Fresno Grand Opera shine greater every year. There has never been a better time to become a Friend and be a part of this vibrant opera company. Join now and get in on all the excitement as we celebrate our 12th season.

Friends of Fresno Grand Opera is not just another volunteer organization. We are a fun, hands-on group of dedicated men and women of all ages who support our company’s artists, staff and technical crew. Feel proud, feel accomplished and make new friends. From all the backstage happenings to the finished performance, find out the secrets and enjoy the glamour of the theater. Attend a rehearsal and watch the production come together. Meet the artists at receptions and parties. Bring yourself, and your love of song, dance, music and art. We welcome your ideas, your special talents and your enthusiasm! Bravo to you!

The "Friends" regularly meet on the first Thursday of every month (September - May) at Campagnia Restaurant, 1185 E. Champlain Avenue (southeast corner of Champlain and Perrin) for a no-host luncheon meeting which features speakers from the world of opera, music and theater. There are no financial obligations aside from annual membership dues.
