Press Release
YOUNGSTOWN, OH (August 9, 2022): Opera Western Reserve (OWR) has received generous donations from the Monday Musical Fund of the Youngstown Foundation ($12,000), Ralph & Esther Meacham Fund of the Community Foundation of the Mahoning Valley ($7,000), and Nancy L. Meacham Charitable Gift Fund ($2,000) of a combined total of $21,000 for OWR’s upcoming fall production, La Bohème.
For its 2022 season, Opera Western Reserve presents Giacomo Puccini‘s opera La Bohème. The opera tells the story of friends and lovers who are artists, writers, and musicians struggling to live and create their art in 1800s Paris. La Boheme contains some of opera’s best loved music and has remained popular with audiences since it was written. “La Bohème” will be presented live on November 11, 2022 in the historic Stambaugh Auditorium Concert Hall.
OWR would like to thank the three foundations for their foresight in supporting the future of arts and social service non-profit organizations in the Mahoning Valley. Opera Western Reserve acknowledges the many donations it receives in support of its fall production.
