BUSINESS SPONSORSHIP WITH
THE OPERA COMPANY OF MIDDLEBURY
Business Sponsorship, one of OCM's two essential fundraising campaigns, specifically backs our professional-level mainstage operas and Youth Opera productions, offering benefits such as advertising and early ticket access.
We are humbled and deeply grateful for the unwavering support of our business sponsors. Without you, our mission of bringing professional-level, quality live opera productions and experiences to our region while also maintaining robust educational programming, would be impossible.
Mainstage and Youth Opera sponsorships are available!
We thank you.
