Membership benefits include access to learning opportunities, networking, outstanding opera entertainment, and ultimately, shows your commitment to supporting the longevity of the operatic arts.

Your tax-deductible contribution will help young opera singers further their careers (our Vocal Competition has gone national and we are attracting talent from across the United States), introduce opera as an art form to nearly 25,000 students in the Palm Springs Unified & Desert Sands Unified School Districts, and help underwrite annual free concerts, like our annual Opera in the Park.

Please Note (where marked as “Complimentary”): These events are offered at no charge to our members and the public. While there is a meaningful cost for the Guild to host them, we proudly absorb this expense as part of our mission to make opera accessible and to share its impact throughout the valley.
