OPERA COLUMBUS GALA
The annual Opera Columbus Gala was held on Thursday, May 4, 2023, at the Athletic Club of Columbus to celebrate OC’s Immediate Past President, Bill Miller, and his tenure and achievements. During the evening, more than 150 guests enjoyed the art of opera and a celebration of Bill’s work on behalf of Opera Columbus and the wider Columbus community. In addition to the wonderful performances by People’s Circus and Hilary Ginther & Robert Kerr, accompanied by Edward Bak, the live auction conducted by Amelia Jeffers was full of excitement and competition. The auction helped raise necessary funds for general operating support for Opera Columbus to continue its mission of advancing the experience and the art of opera.
