“The Year of Cultural Understanding” launch celebration for educators, families and the
community. The San Francisco Opera Guild will share information about its new and
existing educational offerings, while demonstrating the fun, adventure and value of its
programming. The Guild will also highlight its new season theme, “Year of Cultural
Understanding,” underscoring how musical storytelling can build bridges, not walls,
between cultures, and how widening one’s experience of the world can lead to greater
tolerance and communication. The event will include program demonstrations and
musical performances by professional singers alongside students from San Francisco
Opera Guild’s Summer Conservatory and Opera Scouts programs. It will also introduce
“Italia (in)canta” (“Italy in song” or “Italy enchants”), the upcoming Opera Scouts trip to
Italy in April 2018.
