From 18% to 100% – How You Make the Music Happen
Did you know that ticket sales only cover 18% of Toledo Opera's annual operating costs?
Imagine hearing only the opening notes of your favorite song before the sound cuts to static.
Or stepping outside with an umbrella that’s mostly missing.
Or starting every day with just 18% battery on your phone.
Or stepping outside with an umbrella that’s mostly missing.
Or starting every day with just 18% battery on your phone.
That’s the reality Toledo Opera faces each season. Ticket sales cover only a small portion of the cost of bringing world-class opera to nearly 30,000 people across Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan.
The rest? It comes from people like you—those who believe live performance, music education, and cultural connection are worth sustaining.
