Beyond the Gala Resources

Beyond the Gala provides an unprecedented opportunity to showcase the mission and beautiful artmaking of MN Opera to a wide audience of viewers, and we need your help to spread the word. We know personal invitations are one of the best ways to promote events and build support, so we’ve provided various resources for you to use on your preferred social channels.

Over the next several weeks, continually refer to this page for updated content and information about Beyond the Gala to share. Thank you for advocating on behalf of MN Opera. If you have questions or need additional help, please contact Leila Keita at [email protected].
