Katie Grassby is Central City Opera Guild’s 2022 Belle Award winner

The Belle Award was started in 2000 by then-president of Central City Opera (CCO) Guild Sandy Wischmeyer. Since 2000, 22 outstanding Guild members have been recognized with this award. The recipients are special volunteers who have given time and talent to the Guild and Central City Opera, working behind the scenes with little recognition. 2022 winner Katie Grassby has worked on Central City Opera Guild’s L ’Esprit de Noel (Holiday Home Tour) for the last four years and chaired the event for the last two years. In addition, she has done marketing and website design for L ’Esprit. She was recently installed as president-elect of the Guild and is a loyal supporter of the Guild and CCO programs. CCO Guild President Nancy Hemming (a former Belle Award winner) shared upcoming events: March 9 – Central City Opera Teaser at Wellshire, April 21 – Central City Opera Gala at Denver Museum of Nature & Science, May 5 – Spring Membership Party, May 13 – J McLaughlin shopping day in Cherry Creek. www.central cityopera.org/guild.
