The Gallery Collection Featured during the New Jersey State Opera’s “Destination: Opera!”
A business Christmas cards advertisement for The Gallery Collection was recently featured in the souvenir program and guide for Destination: Opera!, a three day celebration which took place from September 12th to the 14th in Ocean Grove at the Jersey Shore. Our company President is an opera enthusiast and serves as Chairman for the New Jersey State Opera. His daughter-in-law is a distinguished soprano who also serves as the Managing Director for the NJSOpera.
Here is our ad that was featured in the souvenir program and guide:
The three day Destination: Opera! celebration included a presentation of “A Century of Opera at the Jersey Shore,” which was held at the Bishop Janes Tabernacle; a walking tour of Ocean Grove’s renowned historic streets; and the Grand Opera by the Shore concert, which took place at the famous 6,500 seat Great Auditorium built in 1894. The concert showcased several international operatic luminaries with the New Jersey State Opera Orchestra and Chorus, all led by Maestro Jason Tramm.
Under the direction of Alfredo Silipigni, the Opera Theater of Westfield was established in 1964 and renamed the New Jersey State Opera ten years later. The NJSOpera had several decades of success followed by many years of debt. Silipigni died in 2006 and the company entered a temporary period of reorganization. Mentored by Silipigni, Jason Tramm was named his successor as Music Director earlier this year. The Grand Opera by the Shore concert was the first performance by the New Jersey State Opera since Silipigni’s death two years ago.
Hats off to the NJSOpera’s effective reformation. We wish them many years of success under the direction and musical genius of Maestro Tramm.

The Benefits of Sending Corporate Christmas Cards
Working for a business Christmas cards company has made me more aware of the importance of corporate Holiday cards for businesses. Customers will frequently say how well their gesture of goodwill has been received by their clients and vendors.
New clients are impressed when they receive quality greeting cards thanking them for their past year’s business. Vendors appreciate receiving a thank you for a job well done. Old clients are reminded of the services that were performed for them in the past. Many customers who send business greeting cards to those who have inquired about services reap the benefit of orders in the following year.
Decorating with Christmas cards has become an integral part of holiday season. They are displayed on doors, walls, desks, and mantles. When quality Christmas cards are selected, people’s eyes are drawn to each card, and they will open it to see who had the good taste to send it. Corporate Holiday cards are the perfect way to keep a business’ name in view throughout the holiday season.
All businesses would benefit by sending corporate Holiday cards from GalleryCollection.com to those who have made their progress possible.
