Lyric Opera Bohemians

Support the arts in Kansas City and get in touch with your inner Bohemian!

As the Lyric Opera organization for young professionals (age 21-40), The Bohemians offer great opportunities to get involved in the community, meet other young adults and learn a little something about opera, too!

Bohemian Happenings:

In addition to attending the Saturday night performances of each opera (Carmen September 25 at 8 p.m., Norma November 6 at 8 p.m., The Daughter of the Regiment February 19 at 8 p.m. and The Marriage of Figaro April 9 at 8 p.m.) Bohemians go out to dinner prior to the opera at the restaurant partners of the Lyric Opera where they receive discounted meals on opera performance nights. Pre-performance dinner schedules are listed on the events calendar page.

Third Friday Happy Hours:
The Bohemians meet the third Friday of every month (September - May) at local bars to socialize and network. Third Friday Happy Hours are listed on the events calendar page.
