Why Support Us makes a difference

La Monnaie is more than an opera house: through our educational, social and of course artistic mission, we are working on a sustainable future, an objective our corporate sponsors, patrons and benefactors are contributing to

Giving young talent opportunities in the artistic milieu, staging world premieres, perpetuating traditional craftsmanship and artistic know-how, giving a vulnerable and wide audience access to the magic of music – these are all part of our DNA, along with many other projects. Become a philanthropist, become part of our story.

1. Our educational mission :
  • The MM Academy offers students at one of Belgium’s eight conservatories and music colleges the opportunity to supplement their training with professional experience in the orchestra and chorus at our opera house.
  • MM Schools introduces children and young people to the world of opera through a wide range of activities and special performances.
  • Support Young Artists – As member of our MM Maecenas-circle, you now have the opportunity to become the patron of a young artist. Young Artists Support scholarship enables the soloists to further develop their talent by helping cover their accommodation costs in Brussels, meals and travel. As the artist’s patron, you will meet at least twice a year to discuss your protégé’s progress and projects. You can also book the artist for a private concert or event. Price of the scholarship: €2,500

2. Our social mission:

The social programme ‘A bridge between two worlds’ is addressed to those who are burdened socially, economically or medically. Its aim is to (re)create social ties and to provide everyone with access to culture, music and opera. Activities adapted to the sociocultural contexts of the target groups are organised throughout the season.

3. Our artistic mission :

By supporting our artistic project, you help fund the sets, costumes and craftsmen required to create high-quality opera performances. You will also help ensure that hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world can discover our operas for free via online streaming.
