Gulfshore Opera transcended expectations by bringing full-scale grand opera to Southwest Florida’s premier venues—Artis–Naples and Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall—uniting communities through breathtaking performances that were once unimaginable in the region. 
Through the Harmony Choir, Gulfshore Opera empowers over 150 at-risk children across six chapters, offering free vocal instruction that enriches lives and fosters a love for the arts in the hearts of the next generation.
 
Founded in 2014 in the ground floor of Steffanie Pearce’s home, Gulfshore Opera has grown from a $280,000 startup to a $1.1 million institution, touching countless lives through accessible, high-quality performances.

As Gulfshore Opera enters its 10th anniversary season, sold-out performances and enthusiastic audiences reflect a decade of dedication to making opera an approachable and beloved art form in the community.
 
Filling a Cultural Void with Passion and Vision
Gulfshore Opera was born from a desire to enrich Southwest Florida’s arts scene, bringing opera to communities that previously had limited access, and fostering a shared cultural heritage that continues to flourish.
 
A Legacy of Accessibility and Sophistication
By combining artistic excellence with an open-hearted approach, Gulfshore Opera has redefined what it means to experience opera—making it both a sophisticated pleasure and an accessible joy for all.
 
 
Community Centric Initiatives that Inspire
