This holiday season, we wanted to take the opportunity to connect with our community, spread some much-needed cheer, share a few surprises, and invite you to join us for Carols in the Pines, a series of free pop-up mini concerts, about 25-30 minutes of music each, held entirely outdoors in six different locations around our state. Four professional opera singers will perform seasonal favorites, maybe an operatic ensemble or two, and those who attend will be the first to access an exclusive announcement about our first full production in May 2022.

Tips will be accepted at Venmo: @operainthepines.
