Opera Ball
A Gala Evening of Fun & Celebration - Opera BallThe elegant Fort Worth Opera Ball is Fort Worth Opera's single largest fundraiser of the year. It is also the first party of the Fort Worth Opera social season, and one of the most entertaining! Last year, this magical event, attracting the major patrons and supporters of our wonderful arts community raised over $150,000. The funds raised benefit essential programs such as Children's Opera Theater and the Fort Worth Opera Studio, as well as our internationally recognized and highly anticipated Fort Worth Opera Festival. Fort Worth Opera is grateful to have support for our programs in the form of sponsorship of a table at the annual Opera Ball. This year, we are also thrilled to be able to partner with Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co. Securities, Inc., as the technology sponsor, who is generously supporting our silent auction. 2011 Sponsors will be honored with a party in a private home, underwritten by Neiman Marcus Fort Worth. By buying a ticket or table, volunteering for the committee, or donating items for the auction, your support of the Fort Worth Opera Ball ensures that Fort Worth Opera, one of the oldest opera companies in Texas and one of the most respected in the nation, will continue to be a source of artistic sophistication and entertainment excellence for future generations.
