Beyond Our Walls

Living and working in a small island community means OHA’s staff and visiting artists are occasionally engaged in their professional capacities beyond our venue. To support our ethos, we ask that community members and OHA patrons:

  • Avoid verbal or physical confrontations
  • Refrain from behavior that is threatening, disrespectful, discriminatory, or disruptive

Community members who compromise the safety or well-being of OHA staff, artists, or volunteers in any context may be denied access to OHA events, and in serious or repeated cases, access may be permanently revoked.

Our Mission

Opera House Arts employs the performing arts to foster and promote excellence in all the ways we perform our lives: Incite Art, Create Community.
