Renée Fleming’s Keynote “Knocking on the Door of the Mainstream: Cultivating Engagement with Arts in the 21st Century” was presented live at the Tessitura Learning & Community Conference (TLCC2015) in Orlando on August 18, 2015. One of the most beloved and celebrated musical ambassadors of our time, soprano Renée Fleming captivates audiences with her sumptuous voice and compelling stage presence. Her role as the first-ever Creative Consultant to Lyric Opera of Chicago and her work with "American Voices with Renée Fleming" exemplify the ground-breaking, cross-organizational, cross-discipline partnerships and collaborations that advance and strengthen the non-profit arts and culture sector as a whole. Through these projects, Ms. Fleming continues to build upon an already substantial role as a visionary leader and cultural ambassador working to ensure that the arts and culture sector remains vibrant, innovative, and relevant. Her keynote address focused on topics for which she has long been a strong advocate - audience development, community engagement, and arts education.
