Striking AFM 6 SF Opera Musicians Perform In Robin Williams Meadow In Golden Gate Park
Striking AFM 6 opera musicians were forced on strike after concession demands by the management of the opera. They preformed at Robin Williams Meadow after the Opera In The Park was cancelled by management because of the strike they caused.
San Francisco Opera Musicians who are members of AFM 6 were forced out on strike after months of negotiations and demands for take-aways and concessions by the management. The management cancelled the Opera Day in the Park and the striking musicians and their supporters showed up and talked about their work and performed in the park on September 13, 2026.
They are urging supporters to contact the management to negotiate a fair contract with living wages.
