The evening of Tuesday, May 27 set the tone for glamour and generosity, as the San Francisco Opera Guild and Neiman Marcus hosted an exclusive Pre-Party in celebration of The Art of Fashion. Held at Neiman Marcus San Francisco, this elegant soirée welcomed the event’s Benefactors and Grand Benefactors for a night of refined mingling, style, and heartfelt appreciation.

It was a moment to celebrate community and generosity—and to thank those whose continued support ensures the success of the Guild’s education programs, which touch the lives of more than 60,000 students across Northern California each year.
