The Ambassador of Mexico and Mrs. Veronica Valencia-Sarukhan, Washington Ballet Artistic Director Septime Webre and co-chairs Pilar Frank O’Leary de la Cruz Ernst choreographed a fabulous evening on May 11, Noche de Pasión, celebrating the world premiere of Noche Latina. Guests gathered on the Rivers restaurant terrace alongside the Kennedy Center before the ballet performance and then proceeded to the Mexican Cultural Institute’s “Café Pasión” for dinner and margarita-fueled dancing. The event raised scholarship funds for Spanish dancers.
