Although its joint history is a relatively young one, the benefits Utah Symphony | Utah Opera is realizing are a direct response to Utah residents' demand of us as we more effectively serve our audiences and community. A prime example of the service we are able to render to the arts community is the value housed in the Utah Opera Production Studios. One of the only facilities of its kind, the Utah Opera Production Studios represents a team of artisans, designers, and skilled craftsmen who bring the art form of opera to life for Utah Opera and performing arts organizations around the world. The Utah Opera Production Studios bring the integration of all production activities of the Utah Symphony | Utah Opera to one resourceful location (Costume Shop & Costume Rentals, Prop Studio, Scenic Shop & Scenic Studio, Set Storage, Assembly ay, Rehearsal Hall) and allows the organization to utilize a business model which combines all aspects of both symphonic and operatic art forms. Production needs for performances at Abravanel Hall, the Capitol Theatre, and even the Deer Valley® Music Festival can be designed and built with the resources found in this building. This has resulted in valuable cost savings and artistic synergy for the organization and the community. The artistic leadership of the organization is committed to representing a broad range of musical styles, including traditional works, contemporary pieces, and new commissions to add to the canon of classical music. Community investment in Utah Symphony | Utah Opera strengthens our economy and enhances our quality of life. Utahns have long recognized that a person's quality of life rests, in part, on the community's commitment to the arts to inspire the human spirit and motivate the betterment of mankind. Over the years, Utah has experienced growth and prominence and continues to become established as a hub for business innovation and scientific research in the United States. Utah Symphony | Utah Opera stands as an influential cultural leader that is often cited by companies as an attraction for a successful and talented workforce to the region. The Utah Symphony | Utah Opera's Education Program benefits Utah's children and is one of the largest in the country, reaching more than 175,000 students and 8,500 teachers annually. Through our education program offerings each school in Utah is visited every three to five years. The reach of this programming is far greater than performing arts organizations in other metropolitan areas. In addition to visits to schools, the programs provide opportunities for students to attend performances, rehearsals, master classes, and other great learning opportunities. The community at large is engaged regularly through various Outreach Programs. We present an annual performance for children with special needs and their families reaching over 600 families each year, an annual performance for the blind and visually impaired reaching up to 150 members of that community, and a variety of musical events for members of our community who are Alzheimer's care recipients and caregivers in collaboration with the Utah Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association reaching over 500 people each year. Other services coordinated by our Education and Outreach Department include a variety of free lectures, internships, on-line learning courses, teacher re-licensure programs, and a Youth Symphony Festival. A stand-out among Utah Symphony | Utah Opera's projects in our local partnership with local museums, art galleries, libraries, film centers, performing arts groups, and scholars, the Festival provides our community the opportunity to explore an artistic theme using all their senses. Additionally, through our volunteer network of over 300 individuals, the Utah Symphony Guild, Ogden Opera Guild, and Youth Guild reach over 500 citizens through their programs and events each year. Utah Symphony | Utah Opera is engaged in valuable cooperative relationships with many other non-profit organizations that serve a variety of purposes, including, The Road Home, Utah School Boards, Ballet West, Madeleine Cathedral Choir School, Children's Dance Theatre and Utah Shakespeare Festival. It is also notable that, through a close relationship with the communities it serves, Utah Symphony | Utah Opera is able to reinvest into Utah's economy. * The organization employs nearly 450 individuals each year. * Performance activity generates approximately $45.5 million of consumer expenditures in Salt Lake City and surrounding areas. * An estimated 93% of Utah Symphony | Utah Opera expenses are fed directly back into the local economy. * Economic development professionals concur that a vibrant symphony and opera are important criteria in attracting new businesses and skilled professionals to Utah. *Source: Salt Lake County Cultural Facilities Master Plan, AMS Consultants, December 2008 Utah Symphony | Utah Opera reaches over 349,000 people every year through live performances.

F990_P06_S0B_L12c Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c The values governing the affairs of US&O are Excellence, Integrity, Trust, and Communication. Staff members are encouraged in their individual capacities to represent these values and to exemplify the highest standards of ethical behavior in all that they do and say. They are thus encouraged to do their utmost to respect the rights and dignity of other persons; to be honest, accurate and open-minded in the presentation of information and ideas; when accounting for US&O's assets or handling financial transactions; when soliciting contributions; when representing Utah Symphony & Opera before governmental leaders, charitable foundations, patrons, and donors; or when dealing with vendors, partners, lessees, and other third parties. A conflict of interest is defined as any circumstance that would cast doubt on the ability of a member of the staff to act with total objectivity with regard to the US&O's best interest. No member shall use his or her position, or the knowledge gained from his or her position, in such a manner that a conflict arises between the interest of the organization and the staff members' personal interests. An actual or potential conflict of interest may occur when an employee is in a position to influence a decision that may result in personal gain for that employee or for a relative as a result of business dealings. For the purposes of this policy, a relative is any person who is related by blood or marriage, or whose relationship with the employee is similar to that of persons who are related by blood or marriage. Utah Symphony & Opera relies on its employees to exercise their responsibilities to the organization in good faith. As a consequence of representing Utah Symphony & Opera,employees may be in a position to establish personal relationships with patrons and donors or obtain confidential information concerning them. Employees may not, directly or indirectly solicit or accept money, loans, expensive gifts, travel, extravagant entertainment, or preferential treatment from such individuals. Employees may not use any information obtained about patrons and donors to further their personal interests during their employment with US&O or after their termination with US&O. In addition to this, the materials, products, designs, plans, ideas, and data of US&O should never be given or sold to an outside agency, firm or person except through normal channels and with appropriate authorization. Any improper transfer of material or disclosure of information, even though it is not apparent that an employee has personally gained by such action, constitutes unacceptable conduct. Any employee who participates in such a practice will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including possible discharge. Having a conflict of interest may not necessarily indicate a professional transaction cannot occur. However, it is the duty of each staff member to disclose annually any actual or possible conflicts of interest in writing to the Director of Human Resources and Department Head. In the absence of an HR director all disclosures may be communicated to the COO. The employee is expected to provide all material facts and personal interests that may by determined to present a conflict of interest before any discussion or negotiation of a transaction takes place. Immediately upon becoming aware of the possible conflict of interest, the Director of Human Resources and Department Head will discuss the conflict with the COO to determine whether a particular conflict of interest is fair to the organization. The Director of Human Resources and or Department Head will respond in writing to the employee within 30 days of disclosure. If agreement is not reached, the final determination will be made by the President/CEO.
