THE GALA

  • The Anderson Pavilion 8 East Mehring Way Cincinnati, OH, 45202 United States (map)

Opera is Truth.
Opera is Beauty.

Event Chairs: Reena Patil, M.D. and Brian L. Tiffany
Honorees: Milly and Doc Huffman

Time and time again, Cincinnati Opera’s storytelling has given voice to those who are voiceless, presented truths that resonate with our community, and touched the hearts of our audiences. Opera unites all the art forms to express beauty through sets, costuming, and lighting design, dance, and of course, music. Operatic stories embody the extremes of human emotion and to reflect that, we are focusing on the extremes of color: black and white with a hint of mystery. We hope you’ll embrace this theme and dazzle us with your choice of stunning outfit, and perhaps add some flair and intrigue with a mask.

Our exclusive evening commences at the Pichler Fountains and Carol Ann’s Carousel offering a breathtaking view of the Roebling Bridge, accompanied by cocktails, entertainment, scrumptious bites, and even the opportunity for a ride on the carousel. The festivities continue downstairs in the Pavilion with a delectable dinner curated by eat well celebrations and feasts. And what would an opera event be without a fabulous performance following dinner? As this is a fundraiser, we hope you’ll come prepared to bid on our auction!
