All contributions to Ellendale Opera House fund drive will now be double-matched

Donations must be received before end of year to qualify

For immediate release: Tuesday, November 15, 2022

Make a donation to O.P.E.R.A.'s fund drive before the end of the year and your contribution will be double-matched by Ellendale Opera House supporters.

The "All-In, All-School Fund Drive" ends Dec. 31, and to further encourage contributions, anonymous supporters will now provide a double-match for all donations made by year's end, up to a maximum of $10,000.

The double match was available previously only for donations from new O.P.E.R.A. contributors. To date, some $3,000 has been donated to the fund drive by first-time O.P.E.R.A. contributors.

Another $31,000 has been donated by supporters who have contributed in previous years to the opera house. Those donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar by supporters up to a maximum of $20,000.

Paintings by Betty Sheldon coming in September

A new art exhibit featuring oil, watercolor and pastel paintings by Betty Sheldon will open Sat., Sept. 10 during Applefest in the Ellendale Opera House Lobby & Gallery.

The exhibit will be open on Fridays in September during the OPERA lunch hour from noon-5pm, and a reception to recognize the well-known local artist will be held from 5-6pm Thursday, Sept. 8 in the Lobby & Gallery. Refreshments will be served.
