LEARN ABOUT HOSTING A MINI EVENT!
We are grateful to live in such a welcoming and supportive community! At Sarasota Opera, we especially love meeting new people and helping to form new friendships and experiences.
You can help us in this endeavor by considering hosting a Mini Event during the coming year. Our goal is 12 Mini Event offerings!
HOW MINI EVENTS WORK:
- Consider hosting a small event - Mini Event - with a special theme - be it a sit-down dinner in a beautiful setting, an informative experience, a unique adventure, or any number of creative ideas you might consider or partner with friends to create a Mini Event Just Your Style
- You might consider:
- A Costume party
- A scavenger hunt, wine tasting, or sunset cruise
- A holiday-themed party, like Valentine's Day, Saint Patrick's Day, 4th of July...
- Share your passion for jazz, blues, theater, or art events
- After the date and theme are set, your event will be listed with the other Mini-Events for the Sarasota Opera Development staff to take reservations and guest payments.
- Your contribution will include the expenses associated with the event, so that all the proceeds go to Sarasota Opera, AND you will receive a tax-deductible for your expenses. (Save your receipts!)
