2015 Wolf Trap Annual Report

2015 Annual Report INCLUDING FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

SHARED EXPERIENCES

B Y A N Y M E A S U R E Wolf Trap Foundation’s 2015 season was a tremendous success, filled with record-breaking milestones and accomplishments. It’s an exciting time to be associated with Wolf Trap, and through the unwavering support of Wolf Trap Foundation’s donors and patrons, we are able to continue to refresh the institution while connecting with our audiences and patrons.

Thank you. Your willingness and passion for the arts help make the Wolf Trap experience more rich and more sought after with each passing year.

Last year we saw successes across the spectrum of the Foundation’s activities, all furthering our goals of celebrating music in all its varied forms, while cultivating the next generation through the arts. Our performance series at the Filene Center was our strongest in years, with more than 20 sold-out shows and 40 artists making their Wolf Trap debuts, and The Barns at Wolf Trap continues to be a premier destination for uniquely intimate concerts.

Wolf Trap Opera mounted its most ambitious season ever, and our renowned education programs went from strength to strength, developing new national and international partnerships while deepening our commitment to the Metro area and throughout Virginia.

Please know that this passionate work would not be possible without you and your generous contributions. We look forward to continued shared experiences with you at Wolf Trap.

In January, the Foundation announced the results of a four-year, independent study showing that as a result of Wolf Trap’s Early STEM/Arts education programs, children are performing better in math. Funded by a major grant from the U.S. Department of Education, the research confirms that Wolf Trap’s arts-integrated model is an effective teaching and learning method. Further

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the time-travel classic Back to the Future, the National Symphony Orchestra performed the score live with an HD showing of the film at the Filene Center.

June Children’s Theatre-in-the-Woods welcomed more than 18,000 patrons to its family-friendly performances. In a season spanning 32 shows, 12 acts made their Wolf Trap debuts, including Story Pirates—the hugely popular sketch comedy troupe that transforms children’s original stories into hilarious musicals.

For the first time in nearly 30 years, The Marriage of Figaro returned to The Barns. The new production featured eight Filene Young Artists and three Studio Artists who garnered rave reviews during its sold-out run: “Mozart can take some credit for the rapt audience attention and the guffaws that peppered the three hours of the Wolf Trap Opera’s opening-night performance of The Marriage of Figaro at The Barns on Friday but just some. The production itself floated on just the right balance of energy and delicacy, slapstick and pathos, and on the intimacy of a small stage and a chamber-size hall.” — ­ The Washington Post

July

Showcasing and promoting diverse artistry and culture, Wolf Trap welcomed National Ballet of China to the Filene Center. The premier Chinese ballet company, accompanied by the National Ballet of China Symphony Orchestra, performed a contemporary version of The Peony Pavilion—one of the most famous love stories in Chinese literature.

On the occasion of her 30th year with Wolf Trap Opera, The Washington Post celebrated Kim Witman—Senior Director of Wolf Trap Opera and Classical Programming—in a feature story.

From beginning her opera career at Wolf Trap in the 1980s to now leading the company, the Post described her impact as a “secret weapon” in the classical world. Her passion and expertise have shaped Wolf Trap Opera into the renowned, one-of-a-kind company and training program that it is today.

Wolf Trap patrons ventured into ancient Egypt for Aida in Concert at the Filene Center, featuring Wolf Trap Opera alumni who have flourishing, international careers. Marjorie Owens, Michelle DeYoung, Carl Tanner, and Scott Hendricks were accompanied by the National Symphony Orchestra and the Washington Chorus. This concert was the first complete opera performed by WTO alumni in the company’s history.

July Wolf Trap Institute for Early Learning Through the Arts returned to Singapore in July.

Collaborating with the National Arts Council and Early Childhood Development Agency, Wolf Trap staff and Teaching Artists trained local artists and educators on how to incorporate the arts into their instructional curriculum.
