Ardea Arts is a non-profit production and development company dedicated to creating and performing new opera and music-theater works. Our goal is to create work that brings new audiences, and to engage people far outside the walls of the opera house.
We work with exciting, unexpected artists who speak to audiences through the media of opera: music, words, theater, and visuals. We strive to involve the community to the greatest extent possible in the process and performance of our works.
Our work would not be possible without strong volunteer support. Our volunteers come from all walks of life and from diverse socioeconomic, religious, and ethnic backgrounds. From seasonal to year-round opportunities, there are many ways to volunteer at Ardea Arts. Volunteering for Ardea Arts offers opportunities for individuals and groups to enhance a variety of production, administrative and customer service skills. Volunteers receive invitations to exclusive volunteer-only events, and exposure to the workings of one of the most vibrant boutique development and production companies in the opera-musical industry.More opportunities with Ardea Arts

Mission Statement
Ardea Arts creates and produces provocative new works of opera and music-theater to entertain, challenge, and inspire today’s diverse global community, uplift the human spirit, and encourage new ways of seeing our world.
Description
ARDEA ARTS is an incubator of groundbreaking, new opera-works redefining American Opera within a contemporary vernacular framework. Our mission is to make the opera experience accessible but challenging to widely diverse audiences of all ages. New work is made by exciting, unexpected artists who speak to these audiences through the medium of opera. Opera bursts forth with our own cultures and resonates with our own languages-enchanting, challenging, and inspiring multi-generational audiences, and makes us laugh, cry, and acknowledge who we are. These are the same ideas that inspired the beginnings of opera back in 1590, and they are what we strive to re-capture in these new works by the artists of today.
Ardea Arts and its founding director Grethe Barrett Holby have been tackling difficult issues through the arts since 1995-spearheading, commissioning, developing, and producing opera and music-theater works for youth, family, and under-served audiences. To this end, we involve communities to the greatest extent possible in the process and performance of the work. We engage composers, writers, designers, singers, musicians, tech crew, and digital artists to collaborate on these new works. Ardea Arts is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
