Dear Friends,

The 2011-12 Season officially comes to a close on June 30 with the end of our fiscal year. It has been a wonderful time of artistic collaboration and triumph, and it has been our pleasure to bring the very best of this amazing art form to the people of Southwest Florida.

The final performances of the year take place next weekend as the talented members of our Summer Youth Program present two great works of the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta canon - Trial by Jury and Patience. Trial by Jury is presented in collaboration with the Naples Italian American Foundation, and is FREE and open to the public (reservations required). Patience will be performed in the G&L Theatre at The Community School of Naples. See the flyer below for more information, and come support the next generation of great singers! Last-minute tickets for Patience will be available at the theatre 30 minutes before performances.

There is also still time to make your contribution of financial support to Opera Naples, ensuring both the artistic and financial success of the Company. What we can accomplish is directly related to our ability to secure your pledge of support, and we hope you will consider an initial, or additional gift today.

We thank you most sincerely for your participation with Opera Naples this season. We've achieved many exciting new milestones. We look forward to a new era of presentation and pledge to remain a community asset of which you can be proud.

With warm regards,

Sincerely,
