The Breaking New Ground Campaign was launched in January 2013 to implement the company’s blueprint for a world-class, twenty-first century opera company. This Campaign allows Lyric to continue to produce major productions of the highest caliber, update media, marketing, and audience development programs, and fortify Lyric’s endowment. The current focus of the Campaign is to modernize the stage of the Ardis Krainik Theatre with state-of-the-art equipment.

To that extent, we have established a new Insull Society comprised of loyal patrons who are contributing $10,000 or more for this critically important stage project. To join the Insull Society, please call (312) 827-5675. Lyric Opera is grateful to the following donors who have made contributions of $5,000 and above to the Campaign as of February 28, 2017.
