The Wilmington HOPE Commission is using forms of art like opera to engage individuals emerging out of the criminal justice system.
"A lot of people think that opera is for an older generation and a wealthy generation," said soprano Amanda Sheriff. "And so, I think something that, like, OperaDelaware does really well is these things where we come out in a van and we're just like, we're going to sing opera for you today!"
The HOPE Commission Achievement Center on Vandever Avenue serves as a hub for programs that help formerly incarcerated individuals re-enter society. Housing and job placement are just two examples of such programs. More topically, there is the Art and HOPE Outdoors initiative that incorporates OperaDelaware into engaging experiences.
"Not only can they obtain tickets to take their children and family members to many of the theaters in the city of Wilmington, but also, we look forward to them being involved heavily in Delaware's emerging and growing arts community," said Brown.
