Nearly 300 people gathered in Liberty Station for San Diego Opera’s Swing and Bling event, a night of fine dining, luxury prizes, and dancing. Guests enjoyed a buffet catered by Sycuan Resort and Casino, and a live auction for a stay in an apartment in Paris, a chef’s table meal at Seasons 52, and front-row dugout seats at a Padres home game. The sold-out event raised funds for the opera’s education and outreach programs, which include free afternoon concerts in front of the theater, busing students to opera dress rehearsals, and classroom docents. Sarah B. Marsh-Rebelo, who has been on the board of the San Diego Opera for 21 years, was honored for her philanthropic contributions.
