Operathon
OPERATHON is conducted by the Lyric Opera Chapters with all proceeds supporting Lyric Opera of Chicago's education and community-engagement programs for children, adults, and seniors. Chapter members have the opportunity to volunteer to work on OPERATHON day in a variety of tasks...talking to donors by being on the "front line" in the phone room, tabulating the sales and contributions, networking with fellow volunteers, welcoming fellow chapter members and orienting them to their assigned duties. Chapter member involvement is essential to Lyric's success.
Stars from Lyric's productions are heard on-air, encouraging listeners to phone in their pledges of support. A stunning selection of Lyric Opera merchandise, autographed items, as well as restaurant and premium certificates is offered via the OPERATHON catalog. A selection of exclusive merchandise is available in our online store, OperaShop. Click here for OPERATHON merchandise.
