Make a difference through multi-year giving!

The Elevation Club, Central City Opera’s multi-year giving program, is an important group of supporters committed to preserving the legacy of opera in the Rockies and ensuring the growth and sustainability of Central City Opera.

Here’s how it works:

Donors who pledge to increase their gift over the course of three years will receive the full benefits of the highest level in their Elevation Club Membership. Below is an example membership:

“We joined the Elevation Club because after 15 straight years of enjoying summer opera in an intimate, acoustically perfect setting, we wanted to help ensure the continued success of the Central City Opera.”
