The evening of April 5th, the San Diego Opera held their Opera for All gala at the HyattI Regency La Jolla at Aventine in tribute to the past chairs of San Diego Opera galas throughout the decades in support of San Diego Opera’s artistic, learning and engagement programs.

Guests began their celebration with a cocktail and champagne reception, followed by dinner, dancing and an after-party headlined, “Café Momus” - a French-inspired discothèque after-party with bistro snacks and bar.

San Diego Opera is a widely respected member of the international opera community and an invaluable cultural resource to the San Diego region. San Diego Opera Guild was founded in 1950 to present San Francisco Opera productions in the San Diego community. San Diego Opera Association was incorporated in 1965 as a producing company and presented its first staging of La bohème in the newly opened San Diego Civic Theatre.

San Diego Opera’s acclaimed productions regularly brought internationally renowned artists to perform in San Diego throughout the Company’s season. The Company’s education program is one of the most extensive and diverse opera education and outreach programs in North America, bringing music and arts to 100,000 school children annually in San Diego County and Northern Mexico.

San Diego Opera is committed to creating a future for opera and the vocal arts by presenting exciting and exceptional performances to diverse audiences through the transformative power of live performance, innovative programming, accessibility and community relevance.
