Opera San José offers
a range of sponsorship options that will expand your company’s
visibility on a local and regional level, enhance your philanthropic
reputation in the community, market your products/services to a
desired client base and offer valued employee perquisites.
Recent studies have
shown that opera patrons are the most loyal and passionate audiences.
They carry that support over to a brand or company that shares this
interest, and with Opera San José’s critically
acclaimed performances at the
California Theatre, interest in our company has increased
dramatically!
Your company can
choose to sponsor a specific performance or make the ultimate
statement to the community by underwriting an entire season.
Communications and collateral opportunities are available via Opera San José’s
newsletter that is distributed to 10,000 readers four times a year,
our website with a logo or link, listed as a Facebook Favorite, or
our OSJ Enews that is sent to more than 6,000 subscribers bi-monthly.
On the other hand,
your company may opt to support Opera San
Jose’s K-12 educational curriculum which include a
