Chairs Veronica and Miguel Leff alongside Honorary Chair Darlene Marcos Shiley welcomed supporters to the Opera Ball for All. LA VIE en ROSE was this year’s theme as the San Diego Opera is celebrating 60 Years and the event had an amazing Parisian theme- flowers, bicycles, pink café furniture – the only thing missing was a baguette! The evening hosted a tribute to the past chairs of San Diego Opera galas throughout the decades who have supported San Diego Opera’s artistic and learning and engagement programs. Notable guests in attendance included Ariela Leff, Brianna Ahern, Victor Orsatti, Robert Kaplan, David Bennett, who joined in celebrating the San Diego Opera’s 60 years at the Opera Ball for All.
