Naomi Christopher, Omar ReidJa’Milla LomasBill and Elizabeth KrogerJose Ivo, Elaine Finger, and Stephen Beaudoin joined Communities In Schools (CIS) of Houston and Houston Grand Opera (HGO) to see West Side Story at the Wortham Center. As part of CIS Night at the Opera, supporters joined 1,300 local students, their teachers, principals, and families for the production. This event was part of a partnership between HGO and CIS of Houston to provide arts education and unique performance experiences for children across the community. Before the performance, board members and supporters of CIS of Houston and HGO gathered for a cocktail reception in the Wortham Center’s Grand Foyer where they heard from HGO general director Bill Kroger and chief executive officer Khori Dastoor, and CIS of Houston board president Omar Reid.
