Kentucky Opera’s Carnevale
Kentucky Opera’s black tie gala, Carnevale, was held Jan. 12 at the Marriott Ballroom. Carnevale is one of Kentucky Opera’s major fundraisers.
The event began at 6 p.m. with a grand wine and spirit tasting, followed by dinner and entertainment by Kentucky Opera artists. Those attending had the chance to bid on exciting live auction items, which included rare wines, dinners, diamond and pearl jewelry and a one-week stay at Maison Rose in Dordogne, France. The elegant evening concluded with dancing at Don Giovanni’s Fiery Lounge.
