OperaDocs
OperaDocs is a special affinity group at the BOC designed to enrich the opera-going experience for medical professionals.
Allan Jensen, M.D., Founding Chairman for OperaDocs, invites opera-loving doctors and other medical professionals for wine, dinner, dessert and a special presentation by a guest speaker at the elegant Brass Elephant Restaurant minutes from the opera house in beautiful downtown Baltimore. The evening concludes with a visit to the Lyric for a sneak peek at the Piano Dress rehearsal of the upcoming opera.
Dinners are heavily attended, so we suggest you reserve your tickets early for all events.
