Do One Better with Alberto Lidji in Philanthropy, Sustainability and Social Entrepreneurship

Christopher Coritsidis, Founder of the Opus 1 Foundation, on harnessing the arts to drive positive change, foster well-being, and connect people

Christopher Coritsidis, Founder of the Opus 1 Foundation, presents a vision for how the arts can play a practical and effective role in driving social impact.

His work focuses on leveraging the power of creative expression to address real-world challenges such as economic inequality, social injustice, and environmental sustainability.

The Opus 1 Foundation brings together a wide-ranging network of artists, academics, advocates, policymakers, and organizations committed to using the arts as a tool for change.

The foundation’s approach is based on the belief that creative practices can go beyond personal expression — they can be used to foster social connection, promote well-being, and strengthen communities.

Coritsidis draws on a combination of professional experiences — from his background as a violinist to his MBA from MIT — to develop initiatives that combine artistic creativity with strategic impact.

A key focus of the Opus 1 Foundation’s work is exploring how the arts can help address disconnection and isolation, which are growing challenges in many societies today. Whether through music, visual arts, or performance, creative projects have been shown to foster a sense of belonging and improve mental and emotional well-being.
