On
September 15, a veritable who's who of political,
social, and cultural leaders attended Wolf
Trap's highly prestigious 2007 ball – “Discovering
Greece” – for an
evening of dinner and dancing on the Filene Center
Stage at the Wolf Trap National Park for the
Performing Arts in Vienna, VA. This year,
the Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts partnered
with Ambassador Alexandros
Mallias and the Greek Embassy to support and
further develop Wolf Trap's local, national and
global education programs, while celebrating the rich
history, culture, and beauty of Greece.
Wolf Trap's relationship with Greece is
rooted in a series of international arts and education
exchanges with the Municipality of Sparta and the Municipality
of Athens. Through these exchanges and collaborations,
Wolf Trap aided in implementing arts education projects
in the kindergartens of Sparta and Athens to expose
Greek teachers and students to innovative pedagogical
activities and learning processes.
This year's Ball was co-chaired by Wolf Trap Associates
Board of Directors member Michael Rebibo and
his wife Cynthia, in conjunction with
Board of Directors member Jacqueline Indelicarto,
along with her husband, Thomas. Wolf
Trap officials anticipate raising more than 500,000 dollars
for Wolf Trap's Education Programs, including the
Wolf Trap Opera Company and the Wolf Trap Institute for
Early Learning Through the Arts.
