Since 1965, The Almaden Valley Women’s Club has been committed to serving the needs of the Almaden Valley Community and those of greater San Jose Area, through funds raised at our annual Festival. All proceeds from the Festival go directly back to the communities through scholarships, grants and donations to non-profit groups. This year we are creating a grant specifically aimed for maintenance and/or improvement to Almaden Lake Park.

All of the members of AVWC volunteer their time to help make this Festival possible and an enjoyable experience for our guests. Our sponsors make the Festival possible through their generous support, loyalty and contributions. We give special thanks to all of our sponsors, artists, vendors and guests for helping us achieve our goal of raising money to help others.

This year's Almaden Valley Art & Wine Festival will be held on Sunday, September 15, 2013 from 10:00AM to 6:00PM at the Almaden Lake Park at the intersection of Almaden Expressway and Coleman Avenue in San Jose’s Almaden community.
