Our Mission:

- Bayreuth Tickets
- Travel to attend performances
- Sponsor lectures and group discussions
- Commission new scholarship for deeper understanding of Wagner and his works
- Support promising performers through scholarships
- Encourage performances of Wagner's works
- Share personal interest and experience about Wagner with other enthusiasts
- Creating a library of recordings and books for the
use of RWSUM members
