Behind every great voice is a community that believes in them. ✨
For decades, Opera Buffs has been that community for some of Los Angeles’ most talented emerging artists by providing career grants, support, and opportunities that make the difference between a dream and a reality. Soprano Rachel Mellman knows this firsthand, and in this video she shares what the Opera Buffs Audition Grant has meant for her artistic journey.
This is why we do what we do. And this is why your support through attendance, membership, or simply spreading the word matters more than you know.
We are so proud to support artists like Rachel, and even prouder to welcome her to the stage at our End of Season Gala, Sunday, May 31st at The Celebration Garden, The LA Arboretum. Come celebrate with us. Link to tickets in bio 🎟️
