LoDoNA and Boys & Girls Club of Metro Denver are pleased to announce our May 1 trip to see Opera Colorado’s production of Cosi Fan Tutte.

Each year, Opera Colorado stages a full production of one of its operas on the main stage, but at a deeply discounted ticket price for children. These matinee productions are a great way to expose children to the performing arts.

The mission of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver is to inspire and enable young people, especially those from disadvantaged circumstances, to realize their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens. We believe that sharing this production is an excellent way to aid in the Clubs’ mission by showing these young people a world they might otherwise never see.

DONATE:

The cost per child for this outing is only $12, including the ticket, transportation, and chaperones. Donations are generally tax deductible. Please consider sponsoring a few children for this worthwhile event.
