Your paid membership goes directly to fund expenses incurred by the Guild. The Guild is now an approved non-profit organization titled "Amigos de Chapala Opera, Sociedad Anonima SA".
On-going Guild expenses include:
Legal and accounting fees to form and maintain the S.A.; Desk rental at our new location; advertising including the Ojo del Lago, Guadalajara Reporter; printing; peridic Guild meetings, etc. We work to limit expenses - there are no paid staff nor other forms of overhead.
After exploratory discussions for the Met to consider Lakeside as a new venue, Howard obtained a production license with the Met and its’ Mexico licensee, Auditorio Nacional.
This agreement allowed us to organize a non-profit organization to produce the Met Live HD broadcasts in an Ajijic cinema.
There were three requirements for the Lakeside Arts Community to take advantage of this Met opportunity: first, the license to produce HD live here locally. Second, a convenient and appealing venue for screening the shows, and third, a local support group – an Opera Guild - to provide ticket sales support and funding in order to sustain the broadcast licenses and fees year to year.
While there are other worthy goals for the Guild – including member education and social events, local opera student financial support and community awareness-building of Opera as an art form – our focus now is to re-start and support the Met Live in HD transmissions in a high-quality, safe theatrical environment

CAMPAIGN TRES ANOS
The Chapala Opera Guild is now asking for Met Live Transmission Sponsors ... for the next Three Met Opera Seasons.
In order to sustain the production partnership we formed with the Moviespace Cine, we seek commitments of $10,000 MX for each live broadcast. This would be for year to year funding for the 2022-2023 Season, the 2023-2024 Season and the 2024-2025 season. Pre-payment is not necessary - just your approval to fund at the beginning of each season.
We are truly grateful for the out-pouring of Sponsorships for the 2019-2020 and 2021-2022 Seasons.
Please e-mail your offer of support to service@chapalaoperaguild.org.
Note:; Cash or checks are acceptable for Guild memberships and Broadcast Sponsorships. Please make checks payable to:
"Amigos de Chapala Opera, SA"

Based on the Moviespace ticketing system, at the time of purchasing tickets, customers must select their seats, so all attendees are given their tickets with their numbered places (H1, A5... etc.)
That is why it is important that people who book their places, go to the box office to buy their tickets and choose their place.
In the fall of 2018, after meeting with The Met and Auditorio Nacional, Howard Willis presented the owners of MovieSpace the opportunity to present HD Live. This led to the succesful opening season in 2019 - 2020. This effort would not have been possible without the generosity and cultural contributions to Lakeside by the MovieSpace officers and employees.
To insure this Opera Season begins on Dec. 4, 2021, The Guild has committed to help MovieSpace sell (200) season tickets at $2,700 mx each. We also must underwrite the Met transmission fees and licenses: we need ten Sponsors at $10,000 mx.
In order to insure the next Met Live Opera Season for 2022-2023, we need (200) season tickets sold at $2,700 mx. We also require (10) Transmission Sponsorships at $10,000 mx. Please contact us today.
