Education

We believe in the power of opera as an educational tool and believe that everyone should have the opportunity to learn, explore and discover the world of opera.

Kentucky Opera offers exceptional educational opportunities for students of all ages. Programs offered include the School Touring Program, Final Dress Rehearsal for Students, Opera Bound, Composer Workshop, Opera Previews and more. 

Statistics show that students involved in fine arts programs:

  • Score higher on verbal and math portions of tests
    Have improved cognitive and language skills
    Increase their potential for self-discovery
    Increase their socialization and problem-solving skills
    Have a better understanding of their world
    Stay in school longer

We encourage you to get involved in our programs and are available to answer your questions or visit with you. Contact the Education Department at 502.561.7938 or e-mail.
