President's Message
letter from Toledo Opera Guild President Cathy McGuire
Hello Friends, Members and Opera Lovers;
WOW, what a crazy time! I hope you are healthy and safe as continue our journey through unsettled times.. The Toledo Opera Guild will again enjoy an amazing season of fun, friendship, and financial support. We plan to kick up our heels at Brunhilde parties, enjoy lovely bistro luncheons, and now many more exciting events are being planned.
We meet in the spirit of the guild's mission: to financially support the Toledo Opera company and to spread awareness of and appreciation for this amazing art form right here in NW Ohio. We continue to form connections with local community members and area businesses, whose volunteering and contribution help make it all possible. Remember, being a member of TOG is not just about being part of the opera but also of a whole community working hard to enhance life here in the Toledo area. Please join us soon as we are able to support the arts in Toledo and insure that the quality of life in NW Ohio remains strong.
This year's Toledo Opera performances are exciting and sure to please all audiences. Our favorite school tours through Opera on Wheels will rev up and the guild events will encompass our mission while having fun.
Remember the Toledo Opera does so much in community. They have education outreach programs that reach over 23,000 students each year from pre-school through high schools throughout NW Ohio and in Michigan, a resident artist program, and pre-opera discussions that are presented to the public at no charge. When you attend a Toledo Opera Guild event, you are helping to support these efforts, as well as the stage productions. And TOG has so many fun ways to do that! - everything from golf to speakeasies is a hot ticket for this group!
Please drop me a note or come to an event when the country opens - I would be pleased to meet you and spend more time with you, sharing the history and excitement of the Toledo Opera Guild. Become a member - our guild members have so faithfully supported our mission for so many years and raised thousands of dollars to keep the arts alive in NW Ohio. We know in our hearts that with your support, Toledo Opera, celebrating 63 years, will hopefully enjoy countless more in the future.
