On the occasion of “Breast Cancer Awareness Month” Nueva Vida will honor survivors strength and resilience by holding the event “Opera: Expressing Cancer Survivors Emotional Healing Journey.” The beauty and the power of opera will allow the audience to experience the range of emotions felt by survivors, all the way through their healing journey. There will also be a cocktail and a live auction.
