Jewel Ball

Las Patronas presents its 79th Annual Jewel Ball, “Back En Pointe,” drawing inspiration from the elegance of Paris and the timeless artistry of ballet.

Guests will be welcomed into a richly decorated ballroom with chandeliers, luxurious draperies, delicate florals, and refined gold-leafed detail — all crafted by Las Patronas members during a year of creative preparation. “We want to shine a light on the vital role that the performing arts play in building community, especially after the challenges faced by so many artists during the pandemic,” says Jewel Ball Chair Katherine Kozo. As guests dine, the music of Wayne Foster Entertainment will provide energy and excitement, setting the tone for the rest of the evening. Behind the Scenes Catering and Events will provide a gourmet dinner inspired by refined French cuisine. Proceeds will fund critically needed capital items for six nonprofit Major Beneficiaries: Camp Stevens, Ivey Ranch Park Association, Neighborhood House Association, Fleet Science Center, San Diego Youth Services, and San Diego Youth Symphony.
