Reimagining Opera for Kids (ROK) is a non-profit community arts and education organization based in Bloomington, IN. It has twin goals: to introduce children to opera through engaging first experiences, and to give developing professional musicians the opportunity to hone their performance skills.
Led by Jacobs School of Music faculty coach Kimberly Carballo, ROK is a community partner in service learning for Indiana University students. The artists donate their preparation and performance time, and ROK provides free performances and curriculum guides to K-12 students.
ROK has been enthusiastically received in many of the area elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as public libraries, home-school groups, hospitals, and community centers. As cuts to education and the arts have increased, schools in particular are eager to take advantage of this opportunity for their students, which comes at no cost to the school system.
