Event
Wine Tasting and Auction only (Architectural Tour NOT included)
IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE - THIS $25 TICKET IS ONLY FOR THE WINE TASTING AND AUCTION PORTION OF THE EVENT DESCRIBED BELOW.
Gualala Arts invites you to the Wine Tasting & Auction in conjunction with the Soroptimist International of Mendocino-Sonoma Coast 30th Annual Architectural Tour to be held on Friday and Saturday of Mother's Day weekend, May 9 & 10, 2014.
The Wine Tasting & Auction will be hosted at the Gualala Arts Center, which is an architectural gem nestled in the redwoods with a dramatic auditorium and foyer where the tasting and silent auction is held.
This is the premier wine event on the Sonoma / Mendocino coast, featuring 25 award winning wineries pouring a wide selection of their premium wines. Over 40 wine-related auction lots will be available for your silent bidding both days of the event, with the winning bids being announced at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 10 (need not be present to win).
New this year is a Friday night Hands On Lobster Dinner, a professionally prepared traditional New England Lobster feast spread out on tables in the Gualala Arts Center's beautiful and spacious Coleman Auditorium.
The Saturday Wine Tasting & Auction is the finale to the 30th Annual Architectural Tour that features iconic designs of The Sea Ranch, Gualala, and Southern Mendocino Coast, with an extraordinary and diverse offering of homes that trace the evolution of the North Coast Style from the creations of the original architects to the current modern 'green' representations of "living lightly on the land."
Wine Tasting & Auction
The Wine Tasting & Auction begins on Saturday, May 10 at 3:00 p.m. at the Gualala Arts Center. Tickets can be purchased for $25 in advance for this event, or $5 more the day of the event. You can also use your Architectural Tour ticket as entry to the tasting.
The elegance of the Gualala Arts Center has been the location for the wine tasting and auction since 1999. Last year Gualala Arts took this event to new heights, ensuring that it is the premier wine event on the North Coast.
You will enjoy a wide variety of outstanding wines being poured by 25 premium northern California wineries, accompanied by a delicious menu of thoughtfully paired food donated by local businesses and carefully selected to complement the wines.
Browse the silent auction lots that feature an impressive array of award-winning wines from 40 northern California wineries, gift certificates and other wine related adventures. Purchase raffle tickets to win the showcase raffle prizes. View the Bay Area Basket Makers and Exotic Wood Vessels exhibits in the Burnett Gallery and Jacob Foyer and enjoy the beautifully landscaped and art-filled grounds of the Arts Center while you sip your wine. Top off your day by making winning bids on auction lots that will help enhance your wine collection, or give you a new adventure to look forward to.
