Education is a fundamental component of Salt Marsh Opera’s mission, featuring programs for both adults and students. The Salt Marsh Opera Guild offers a series of Guild Lectures about various aspects of opera by knowledgeable lecturers from diverse backgrounds. The Student Intern Program gives talented high school students a hands-on learning experience in a professional production while being mentored by a member of the Salt Marsh Opera production staff. Student Performances include a full operatic experience with staging, costumes, supertitles and orchestra, followed by a question answer session when students have an opportunity to interact with the directors and cast.
