National Patron Program
A Message from Your National Patron Chairman
It is with great pleasure that I welcome and acknowledge all National Patrons of The Metropolitan Opera. It is an honor to serve as Chairman of this singular program whose purpose is to recognize our donors at the $2,750 level and above who live outside the New York metro area. Your passion and dedication to the Met and our beloved art form is second to none, and I thank you for being a part of our Patron family. I hope you continue to feel as though you’ve found an operatic home in the Met!
