Join us on Thursday, October 10, 2024 at Terrace on the Park for a tribute to the resplendent island of Cyprus—a land of beauty, hope, and resilience scarred by division since the illegal invasion in 1974.The evening will begin at 6:30 p.m. with hors d’oeuvres and an open bar. The concert portion of this dinner Gala will showcase the Kyrenia Opera chamber orchestra, chorus and soloists.
Funds raised from our event will provide support for outstanding performances, scholarship, educational outreach and artistic exchange between New York, Vienna and Cyprus. Together we can ensure that Kyrenia Opera will remain a vibrant and resilient presence in the arts.
