Be the reason the
music never stops
The monthly giving circle of St. Croix Valley Opera
$25 / month · $300 / year
Every July, thousands gather along the St. Croix River for Opera on the River. Every summer, the Hudson Bandshell comes alive with world-class music under an open sky. These are the two biggest events we produce each year.
They're also completely free.
Every seat. Every note. Every year.
That's the most expensive promise we make — and the one we refuse to break. While our cabaret nights, master classes, and holiday performances are offered at accessible ticket prices, we believe our largest community events should have no barrier to entry at all.
The Sustainers Circle is for the people who make that possible — whose steady, recurring generosity lets us keep that promise year after year.

A PERSONAL THANK-YOU
A note from artistic leadership each season, because we never forget who makes this work possible
Your $25/month reaches further than you think. It's in the stage built on the riverbank every July. It's in the bandshell concert that draws an entire community out on a summer evening. It's in the school tour that gives a seven-year-old their first taste of live opera. Every dollar sustains all of it.
This is more than a monthly gift. It's a standing invitation to
everything that makes St. Croix Valley Opera what it is.
$25 / month · cancel anytime
Want to give more? Every dollar above $25/month goes directly to making
our programming bigger, bolder, and free where it matters most.
There's no cap on generosity — only gratitude.
