From TOLEDO OPERA
Toledo Opera will host their annual fundraising Gala at the Toledo Club, 235 14th Street, on Friday, May 9. This year’s event will be a progressive Gala – celebrating three opera-loving cultures while featuring dynamic performances by the Toledo Opera Resident Artists.
The gala will begin at 6 p.m. in the Red Room, where Italian-inspired cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served. During this time, guests will enjoy performances of Italian opera arias. Following cocktail hour, guests will move to the Dining Room for a plated French dinner of Beef Bourguignon, Coq au Vin, or Wild Mushroom en Croûte. Throughout dinner, the room will be serenaded by melodies of French composers that have shaped opera and classical music for centuries. A paddle raise during dinner will support the education programs of Toledo Opera…
