This stays the same

The National Opera House is preparing for a future where restoration, cultural memory, and community programming come together inside the historic home at 7101 Apple Street.

Focused on Restoration

Our current priority is restoring the house

We have scaled back our programmatic efforts to focus on the 7101 restoration project.

Once the restoration of 7101 Apple Street is complete, the National Opera House will offer a full range of community programs including workforce development, cultural preservation, arts education, and more.
