Opera Kids ImageOperaKids immerses children in producing and performing an opera created just for them. The 15-week residency is led by a Lyric Opera teaching artist in partnership with a classroom teacher. Students learn to express themselves creatively by studying music and performing an original work adapted from children's stories, such as African Stories and Stone Soup.
