Mission Statement
Founded to award scholarships to deserving young aspiring opera singers who reside full time in California.
About This Cause
Maria Holt founded this program in 1970. Her vision was to continue to serve the community and aspiring young artists with the benchmarks established by her husband, Henry Holt. We are privileged to continue her mission in tribute to her dedication. We are particularly proud that we were able to expand our services to young singers with the help of West Bay Opera, its volunteers, and the generosity of our donors. We continue to be honored with applicants for each annual audition who have the talent and skill to go to the next step in seeking a career in grand opera. We have been happy to see a number of recent winners showcase their potential and hone their skills with Opera San José as resident artists. This is the quality of contestants that we have been able to attract over the years and explains the satisfaction and joy we feel in continuing our efforts to preserve the legacy of Henry and Maria as champions of the young, beginning singer. These efforts include many hours of hard work behind the scenes by our board members, all on a volunteer basis, and their willingness to furnish their whole-hearted support to this worthy venture.
