Opera Community Engagement Programs Database

Bring the arts into YOUR community - wherever you are!

In 2014, ROK ED Kim Carballo began grant-funded research to track and discover like-minded organizations, which engage with communities in accessible ways via the arts. In 2021, we revisited the project to update and refine our data through a national survey, with research done by Caroline Goodwin. The results of this most recent revision are reflected in the first interactive map below. The second map is a summary of the original work, researched by Martha Eason, Satsu Holmes, and Alex Nelson.

The maps indicate a national distribution of community engagement programs:  those tied to professional opera companies (blue), those tied to institutions of higher education (red), and those that operate as independent organizations (yellow).  

Use this database to connect to an arts engagement program near you!

Black lives matter. 

As an organization, ROK is striving to know better and do better. 

As artists, we hear, see, and lift up our siblings of color. 

And as human beings, we sing out that we must reimagine not only what our art form can be, but much more; what our society must be, locally, nationally, and globally.
