Supporting Houston Grand Opera has it Benefits!

Whether it is complimentary dress rehearsal tickets, a Guild Membership, or valet parking, members of Houston Grand Opera enjoy a variety of privileges and benefits. Your gift also supports Houston Grand Opera’s annual fundraising drive, Excellence and Innovation, making possible the incredible work of HGO, both on and off the stage.

Ticket sales meet less than one-third of the costs of producing opera on the stage, and they do not cover the costs of our vital education and community programs. When you make a gift to HGO, you ensure that the company remains an important cultural resource to the city of Houston, and to audiences everywhere who regard HGO as a model of excellence for the performing arts.

If you have questions about becoming a member, or for information on higher levels of membership and their respective privileges and benefits, please contact the Development Office at 713-546-0235 or donorservices@houstongrandopera.org.

Please see a complete listing of membership levels and benefits below. Make your annual gift in support of HGO today.
