OperaLex Members provide loyal and generous support for Central Kentucky’s vibrant opera scene and help educate the next generation of opera stars at UK. This list represents members who joined OperaLex between July 1, 2022 and September 15, 2022. Many of them are former Bravo Guild members who have a long history of loyal support to our mission.

OperaLex members can volunteer their time for a range of opportunities to support the organization and the UK Opera Theatre. Serving cast dinners, providing extra hands to prepare for performances and events, and helping to host and prepare for singing competitions are just a few of the ways members make a difference and connect with students, faculty and fellow music lovers. To sign up, go to the website and submit a volunteer form.
