For sixty years, Lyric Opera of Chicago has produced world-class opera with
many of the world’s greatest artists. With decades of dedicated support from
donors and subscribers, the company has flourished, gaining global recognition
for its artistic excellence and fiscal stability.
Building our reputation for the future will rely on continued commitment to
the broad, deep, and relevant cultural service we provide to our city, while also
advancing the development of opera as a vital art form. Lyric is seizing new
opportunities to present opera at the highest level, re-define our audiences, and
enhance our infrastructure.
The
Breaking New Ground
Campaign was launched in January 2013 to implement the company’s blueprint for a world-class, twenty-first century
opera company. Breaking New Ground allows Lyric to continue to produce major productions of the highest caliber while also modernizing
the stage of the Ardis Krainik Theatre with state-of-the-art equipment. The Campaign also contributes toward updated media, marketing, and
audience development programs, and strengthens the company’s financial position, including continued efforts to build Lyric’s endowment in
accordance with industry best practice.
Lyric Opera is grateful to the following donors who have made contributions of $5,000 and above to the Campaign as of January 1, 2016.
