As Washington National Opera embarks on a bold new chapter, we invite arts lovers across the country to join the National Friends of WNO.
Your participation champions WNO's artistic independence and fuels our historic 2026–27 season, featuring 7 productions across 5 venues.
As a National Friend, you'll receive exclusive written and video updates offering behind-the-scenes insights from our artists, creative teams, and other arts leaders.
Enrollment is open to all. While gifts of any size are deeply appreciated, a contribution is not required to join.
