The Arkansas Symphony Orchestra held its 40th annual signature gala, Opus Ball XL, at the Capital Hotel, raising more than $565,000 for the nonprofit’s statewide music education programs. Guests enjoyed fine dining, live and silent auctions, performances by the ASO and dancing. This year’s gala honored the ASO Board of Directors’ Life Members, who have consistently stepped up for the orchestra through financial support, volunteering and leadership.
