The Our Kids review of Canadian Opera Company

The COC is the largest opera company in Canada and one of the foremost companies in North America in terms of size, breadth, quality, and community outreach. There is a dedication to creative and accessible programming, and the children’s programs reflect that. The programs are able to draw on a broad range of resources, from professional instructors, performers and professionals, to facilities that are literally unequalled in the country. The foundational belief of the company, if not expressed in exactly these terms, is that opera is for everyone and that, from sets to stage work, can address a range of creative skills and talents in an integrated and collaborative way. The environment of the company itself is a principle draw—children who enrol enter an authentic arts environment, meeting and learning from mentors and peers who share their passions and interests. They also participate in one of the primary arts organizations of the city. For some children, perhaps most, it's a transformative experience.

Hi there,

I would like to thank you for considering our Summer Opera Camps for your child. Each summer, we look forward to having a great creative camp experience, extending a warm “Welcome Back” to those returning for the summer of 2020, and a warm welcome to those new parents and children joining us for the first time. My name is Sarah Forestieri, and I am the Children, Youth, and Family Programs Manager in the Education & Outreach Department. I hope to have the opportunity to get to know you and your child over the summer.
