SENIORS MATTER TO OPERA NOVA. Arlington has a cultural treasure in its senior [population. Many
have achieved a level of wisdom from their life experiences grounded by their education-formal and informal.
Let’s do something for them. VOLUNTEERS are needed to maintain what Opera NOVA has begun: -an
outreach to seniors(from 55-105 yrs!) .Art outlets for seniors are as important to their lives as encouraging
exercise. One maintains a flexibility important for fall prevention and overall mobility, the other critical to
maintain curiosity, creativity, emotional and intellectual fulfillment - all important for quality of life. Opera
NOVA will train and tutor volunteers Computer skills would be awesome, shared belief in the worthiness and
civic fairness of this opportunity important. For more information contact Opera NOVA offices at 703-536-

Mission Statement

Opera NOVA works to bring the joy of opera to the local community and develop regional support for the performing arts by fostering an appreciation for local theater across generations.

Description

Opera NOVA was founded in 1992 as a volunteer-based, non-profit charitable organization to bring the joy of opera to the local community and develop regional support for the performing arts by fostering an appreciation for local theater across generations.

The Guild is incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia and has been recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c) (3) entity.

Over the years, Opera NOVA has offered major financial support for an annual family opera that is attended by school children during week day performances and by children with their families and community-based organizations on weekends. Because of our efforts, 50,000 school-aged children, many of whom would not have the opportunity otherwise, have attended an opera. The performances not only offer children a unique opportunity to hear an opera sung in English, but they also learn about various opera and theatre techniques, from special effects to the intricacies of set and lighting design.
