The Encore Society is a special group that honors and recognizes donors who have included Seattle Opera in their legacy plans. More than 180 members strong, their gifts represent a range of sizes. There is no minimum amount to be a member, as all gifts are welcome and important to Seattle Opera. What they all have in common is a desire that part of their legacy be a vibrant opera company for future generations.
Below is a list of our Encore Society membership as of November 6, 2009. Our thanks to our Encore Society members for their generous support. For more information about legacy giving and the Encore Society, please call Lisa Bury at 206.676.5530.
