Opera Europa: Fundraising, Audiovisual Media, and Artistic Administration Forums

During the second semester of 2018 Opera Europa, the European Theatre Association that brings together more than 150 opera houses in the old continent, as is tradition, will develop specialized forums, to which the members of Ópera Latinoamérica have special benefits.

.

FUNDRAISING FORUM & FRIENDS
In partnership with Deloitte Madrid, the Forum conducted a survey among the different opera houses in Europe on the different models of fundraising, and is currently evaluating the motivations of corporate sponsorship, as well as the reasons of the large companies that decide Do not patronize the opera.

.
The next forum will take place in the framework of the autumn conference of Opera Europa in Parma (12th-15th October), preceded by the FEDORA General Assembly on October 11th.

FORUM AUDIOVISUAL AND DIGITAL MEDIA
Opera Europa offers its members a new specialized forum for colleagues working in the field of audiovisual and digital media. Like other OE forums, this group will support the professional development of a specific interest group and offer a serious space, during and outside of our main conferences, to reflect on areas of common interest.

The next meeting of the forum will be held in Barcelona on October 18th and 19th, 2018 in collaboration with Gran Teatre del Liceu.
