Second year that donors maximized matching dollars

Wednesday, January 11, 2023

Thanks to a flurry of year-end donations, the Ellendale Opera House "All-In, All-School Fund Drive" exceeded its goal, raising more than $84,000 – $14,000 more than the fund drive goal – for restoration work on the historic Main Street landmark.

New artist exhibit now open

Shannon Wirrenga works primarily with oils, and her work is inspired by lessons of faith and nature.

She enjoys painting people and lettering calligraphy, but also dabbles in photography and acrylic. Exhibit open Fridays from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. January from the 6 through January 20.

If you have a group that would like to view the exhibit during non-open hours, contact Jamie Eberle at 702-373-4424.

Holiday art exhibit starts Dec. 2

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.
