Opera Naples Resident Artist Program

Resident Artists are emerging professional singers who are pursuing a career in opera. Resident Artists are selected through a national search to work with Opera Naples during the peak season. Participants are paid a weekly stipend, a travel stipend, and housing. The Resident Artists perform principal roles in chamber operas at the Wang Opera Center, perform secondary roles in mainstage operas at Artis-Naples, perform a children’s opera for the In-School tour program, and perform in various community events. Opera Naples staff, supplemented by other area professional artists, provide coaching, instruction, and career advice.
