OPERA OMAHA’S MISSION is to enrich the quality of life in our community by creating professional opera and music theater, which uniquely combine the visual and performing arts to express humanity’s deepest emotions and highest aspirations. Opera Omaha’s mission is achieved through the presentation of main stage productions with the highest artistic standards and through customized education and outreach programs designed to inspire all individuals, regardless of age, prior exposure to the arts, or personal limitations.

The mission of Opera Omaha’s education and outreach Community Programs is: to enrich people’s lives through opera; to help individuals of all walks of life and degrees of artistic exposure find the personal, social or historical resonance inherent in opera; to stimulate an understanding and interest in the classical arts and opera among new audiences and students in schools; and to use opera to inspire individuals to overcome personal obstacles and attain their highest aspirations.
