Professional Development

As part of Access Opera, teachers may participate in one or more complementary professional development workshops that offer strategies for connecting elements of opera (music, theatre, movement, visual design) with other subject areas. These sessions are designed to interest both the seasoned opera lover and the teacher new to opera. Offerings vary each season.

OPERATIC MAGIC AT THE MET

Date to be announced.
Metropolitan Opera House, 30 Lincoln Center Plaza, NY, NY 10023 

Witnessing the spectacle of grand opera at the Met is truly an incredible experience, but it is only part of the story. Learn all about the what happens in the days, weeks, months and even years leading up to an opera production taking the stage. Then, embark on a backstage tour of the world’s largest performing arts organization. Space is limited for this perennial favorite workshop; preference will be given to teachers who have not previously participated.
