Dear Friend and Patron,

San Francisco Opera Guild invites you to participate in an exclusive celebratory event, An Evening of Enchantment honoring Nathan Gunn & Mozart’s The Magic Flute.  This glamorous black-tie event will be held on Friday, March 23rd at The Fairmont San Francisco and will honor internationally renowned baritone, Nathan Gunn, who will be performing the role of Papageno in San Francisco Opera’s upcoming production of The Magic Flute.  Nathan is acclaimed not only for his operatic roles, but also as a brilliant musical theatre performer and cabaret star.  Dine in luxury, dance and join us in the festivity surrounding this magical evening. 

An Evening of Enchantment will continue the tradition of premier events presented by San Francisco Opera Guild.  This gala evening will commence at 6:00 pm with a cocktail reception and silent auction in the Crown Room. At 8:00 pm, guests will proceed to the elegant Gold Room for a lavish dinner, brief live auction, and special performance by Nathan Gunn. Immediately following, the band will strike up and guests will celebrate with a toast to the summer season and music to dance the night away.

In addition, guests at the Patron Level and above will be invited to attend an exclusive VIP reception with Nathan Gunn in the magnificent Fairmont Penthouse Suite that evening.

Every year, San Francisco Opera Guild brings the magic of music to over 50,000 young people throughout Northern California. Your patronage at this event helps make these vital programs possible and your support of these award-winning programs has never been more important.

We look forward to your favorable response and your participation in this spectacular evening!
