Note from General Director & CEO Greetings from Cincinnati Opera! I thought it would be helpful to share a bit more context about this remarkable career opportunity. The Chief Philanthropy Officer opening comes at an extraordinary moment in the life of Cincinnati Opera. Over the past two years, we have been at work on Vision 2030, a long-term plan for sustainability, artistic innovation, and audience expansion. Also, we will soon announce a major commitment to the creation of new operas aimed at expanding the diversity of the art form’s canon; these new works are set to premiere in 2025, 2026, and 2027. Finally, we have begun a partnership with a top-tier consultancy toward a multi-year capital campaign. With all this in mind, we are seeking a brilliant and capable leader who will embrace the legacy and potential of Cincinnati Opera and its people and who will champion the development of a world-class fundraising team. This person will join an equally brilliant and encouraging team of colleagues, including Artistic Director Evans Mirageas, and will enjoy engaging with our enthusiastic and supportive board. I know I speak for the entire company when I say we are looking forward to finding the right person for this position as quickly as possible. You will be proud to be part of our upcoming summer season at historic Music Hall, which will feature the world stage premiere of Paul McCartney’s Liverpool Oratorio . I look forward to being in conversation with you. –Christopher Milligan, The Harry Fath General Director & CEO About Cincinnati Opera Founded in 1920, Cincinnati Opera is one of the oldest and most highly regarded opera companies in the United States.
