OCM’s commitment to professional live opera with full orchestra and a Young Artists Program has led to growing budget pressures. Ticket sales (37% of our budget), membership gifts (40%), and grants alone cannot address the fiscal realities of a non-profit arts organization in 2021. With administrative costs a mere 6% of the budget and careful stewardship of our expenses, we have managed. The OCM Annual Fund’s goal is to sustain and lift the levels of excellence we have established without compromise.
