Support our Mission

Lowbrow Opera Collective was born out of the desire to push the envelope of opera. In the summer of 2018, co-founders Katie Kelley, Christine Oshiki, and Nic Varela met at a pub to gripe over the difficulties of being a young opera performer. Our three co-founders decided to say “to hell with it” and create the opportunities for themselves and for other young singers to be able to tell stories that resonate with modern audiences.

Their beer-soaked dreams became a reality, and Lowbrow is now celebrating its fifth year of productions! This wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our generous community.

LOC is a story of humble beginnings and big dreams. Our work is a love letter to our community, and is done for the advancement of opera. If you would like to support our mission, please consider donating to our cause. 100% of your donations goes toward supporting LOC’s future projects. 

Lowbrow Opera Collective is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit, and all donations are tax-deductible!
