Please join us at The Conrad for a Valentine’s Day celebration of music and romance at the 2024 WinterFest Gala.
Guests will meet and mingle in The Wu Tsai QRT.yrd for a Champagne toast to our brilliant artists, followed by an elegant dinner and brief live auction before we enter The Baker-Baum Concert Hall for a concert by world-renowned soprano Renée Fleming, accompanied by our own Inon Barnatan. Finally, a post-concert dessert reception is the perfect way to celebrate this day of love!
This special evening provides the primary funding for La Jolla Music Society’s Learning and Engagement programs, which reach nearly 11,000 school children and adults in multiple locations throughout San Diego County every year. As someone whose love of music began in early childhood, these programs are especially dear to my heart. Your attendance at the Gala helps us improve and expand these programs to include even more San Diego children. Your participation is so much appreciated!
You are invited to select the level of support that you prefer; charitable donors of $2,500 per person or $5,000 or more per household are also invited to a private Sponsor Party next Spring.
I hope you will join us in welcoming Renée Fleming to The Conrad for a Valentine’s night to remember!
With heartfelt thanks,
