FCO Opera Auction 2025

 Welcome to our Silent Auction! This event is a crucial part of our mission to raise funds that support the exceptional programming at First Coast Opera. With your generous contributions, we are able to continue producing large-scale productions that showcase nationally recognized artists, feature live orchestras, and present stunning costumes, sets, and visual elements. Opera is a unique and powerful art form that blends music, drama, and visual storytelling in a way that no other medium can. The funds raised through this auction will directly support the creation of these dynamic, high-quality productions and help us continue to bring world-class performances to our community. Your participation not only enriches the cultural fabric of our region but also ensures that opera remains accessible and vibrant for years to come. Thank you for supporting the arts and helping us keep the magic of opera alive! 

Now celebrating its 25th season, First Coast Opera has become Northeast Florida's premier opera company. Under the leadership of General and Artistic Director Curtis Tucker since 2014, FCO has expanded its programming to include both classic and contemporary works, such as this month's "The Magic Flute" and Puccini's "Turandot" in May, as well as tribute concerts honoring icons like Marian Anderson and Leonard Bernstein. 

As the region's sole producing opera company, FCO collaborates with local institutions—including Flagler College and the University of North Florida—to enrich the cultural landscape. Financially supporting the arts ensures the continuation of these enriching performances and educational initiatives, fostering community engagement and preserving cultural heritage for future generations.
