| Patron Program
Opera Queensland's Patron Program has been designed to offer a way for individuals who love opera to contribute to the development of Australia's young opera singers and artists. Patron donations enable us to continue our important work of nurturing young, developing talent who will continue to delight audiences in the future. The careers of over 100 young singers have benefited from this program - many of whom are recognised as the finest opera singers Australia has produced.
