Friday — Explore Santa Fe’s vibrant visual art scene with a local curator, followed by a relaxed lunch at Café Pasqual’s. In the early evening, R.B. and Karen Schlather welcome you to a private fête with the opera’s creative team, set against sweeping arroyo sunset views. The night continues at the Santa Fe Opera, with orchestra seats to Madama Butterfly, featuring mezzo-soprano Sun-Ly Pearce, a cast member from Hudson Hall’s Rodelinda.

Return at sunset for cocktails and an elegant Opening Night Dinner catered by Four Seasons Encantado at O’Shaughnessy Hall, an open-air pavilion overlooking the opera’s gardens. The evening culminates with the centerpiece of our journey — orchestra seats for the opening night performance of Rodelinda.
