FGO’s Family Day is a fun-filled event where opera fans – young and old, new to the genre or opera aficionados – can come and explore the world of opera through hands-on activities, interactive experiences, and the thrill of live theater. Activities will include stage make up, costume and prop design, instrument petting zoo, voice lessons, and a live musical performance to delight all ages. All participants receive an opera passport/autograph book to guide them through the day’s activities, as well as a special gift to commemorate the day.

Family Day will conclude with a performance by the students of The North Broward Preparatory School (NBPS) lead by Choral Director Liz Korkosz and Music Director, Tenor, and former Florida Grand Opera Studio Artist Daniel Bates. NBPS provides music curriculum, developed in collaboration with The Juilliard School, which inspires its young musicians to develop the skills of musical thinking, active listening, and connection, empowering them with creativity, curiosity, and cultural literacy. Students from the NBPS Vocal Program will perform a concert featuring Art Songs and Operatic Arias by some of history’s greatest composers.
