Mothers and fathers living in precarious situations
Mécénat Musica Poterie Opéra is a gift for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, for mothers and fathers living in precarious situations: an item of handmade pottery is delivered to their homes by an opera singer.
Mécénat Musica Poterie Opéra is a way to bring music and art into the community and to support artists in Quebec.
Mécénat Musica Poterie Opéra is aimed at parents living in precarious situations in the Outaouais region, whose “disposable income per inhabitant is lower than the rest of Quebec.”
Mécénat Musica Poterie Opéra is an initiative of Opéra à la Carte and Muraï Céramique, supported by the donors of Mécénat Musica and Ensemble ArtChoral since 2020.
