Individual Membership Giving – Annual Gifts

Make an Investment

When you invest in Tulsa Opera, you not only help to create extraordinary mainstage productions, you also enable the company to give back to the Tulsa community in a number of ways – by stimulating the local economy, encouraging cultural tourism and fostering a love of the arts through a variety of education and outreach programs.  Your gift enables Tulsa Opera to reach over 65,000 students annually,

Each year supporters of Tulsa Opera provide crucial financial gifts to help cover operating expenses.  Membership categories begin at just $50.  For exclusive benefits, consider joining Tulsa Opera’s President’s Council with your gift of $3,000 or more.  For those Patrons contributing $25,000 or more, we offer customized benefits at the Medici level.

No matter what your level of giving, you will be making a contribution to support one of Oklahoma’s and the nation’s great cultural resources – Tulsa Opera.

How to Give

There are many ways to invest – gifts can be made throughout the year in the form of cash, securities and even airline miles!  Many corporations offer matching gift programs which enable their employees to double their contributions and maximize their gift to Tulsa Opera.  Contact your human resources department to find out if a matching gift program is available through your company.  Tulsa Opera Legacy Society gives you the opportunity to designate a special future gift through bequests, life insurance, trusts or other charitable gift planning options.
