As it became clear that the Covid-19 shutdown was going to last into the summer, Opera Theatre of St. Louis found ways to transform its summer festival into an online feast of performances, watch parties, lectures - even preserving its traditional pre-opera picnic dinners via a home delivery service. But its staff also recognized the growing need in the broader arts community of the region and has brought it together for a fundraiser, called Arts United STL, to benefit area artists on May 31. General Director Andrew Jorgensen discusses these efforts.
