Opera On Tap is a Brooklyn-based performing arts organization founded in 2005 at Freddy’s Bar and Backroom and incorporated in 2007 to promote opera as a living, progressive art form and to support developing artists. What began as a monthly gathering of classically trained singers has grown into a producing company with a national footprint, anchored by a Chapter network that includes sixteen chapters. Operating in the performing arts sector, it seeks to bring opera and classical music to nontraditional spaces to educate and engage new audiences while providing performance opportunities for young singers and instrumentalists, and advancing public understanding of culture and the arts. The organization emphasizes diversity, equity, and inclusion across administration, programming, and performances, and aims to engage communities historically underrepresented in classical arts through its projects. In 2025, Opera On Tap announced a partnership with the Chabot Space & Science Center to support a collaboration described as 'xixoxa's Spaceship,' reflecting ongoing expansion of its partnerships.
