Inspiring Moments of Wonder

May 29, 2023

In Manitoba Opera’s recent production of Così fan tutte, Italian sisters Dorabella and Fiordiligi came to Canada for a new experience and for that sense of wonder and adventure that travelling provides.

The arts can also provide a sense of wonder and rich experiences. All it takes is a little passion and an investment from those who understand and support this – like the Winnipeg-based employee benefits company, Johnston Group. Lucky for Manitoba Opera, Johnston Group has been a dedicated partner of the company for over a decade.

Johnston Group provides employee benefits solutions to more than 30,000 small businesses, 300 larger companies, and 350 Indigenous organizations across Canada. They also care deeply about the community in which they are located.

Manitoba Opera is passionate about what we do and has relished welcoming back audiences this year for a full season of live performances, as well as a celebration of our 50th season and those who have been with us on this journey. Johnston Group’s support enabled us to offer opera experiences this season that sparked joy, revitalized aspiration, and left audience members with a sense of wonder and awe.

Thank you to Johnston Group for your help in providing those moments of wonder and adventure, minus the cross-country travel.
