The Fresno Grand Opera Board of Directors and management should agree to settle their differences with the Opera Musicians of Fresno, and AFM Local 12. The FGO management team needs to begin bargaining in good faith and offer a contract that includes a firm schedule, and fair and timely hiring procedures.

The community calls upon the FGO to sit down with the musicians' representatives and work to guarantee quality music in their productions by hiring professional musicians and treating them as professionals.
