The Almaden Valley Art and Wine Festival is a community fund raising event sponsored by the Almaden Valley Women’s Club and co-sponsored by the City of San Jose. Our fine reputation, based on 32 years of Festival Success, is well recognized and draws over 23,000 Festival attendees annually. This is an excellent opportunity for artists to showcase their own unique and personally handcrafted artistry.
This year our Festival will be held on Sunday, September 20th from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Almaden Lake Park, San Jose. Last year our Festival raised over $45,000. This money was distributed throughout several non-profit agencies, scholarships and schools within our community. We are truly excited about the prospects of an even greater Festival this year!
As Artists Chair for this year’s Festival, I encourage you to submit an application. Also included are the general guidelines concerning becoming a participating artist. This is a juried event and spaces are limited. Additional information can be found on our website: www.almadenwine.org Please contact me at art1@almadenwine.org should you have specific questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Bonnie E. George
