Dear Friends,
We invite you to join us for the wine country's most colorful, creative, energetic, beloved, and emulated showcase of the culinary, winemaking, visual, performing, and literary arts on the weekend of July 26, 27, and 28.

Immerse yourself in the action as Salute Royale 002 gets underway with the annual Salute Celebration opening night gala at Buena Vista Winery. Take a chance, roll the dice, try your hand and place your bet! You may win the top prize: A trip for two for two nights of gaming and fun. Taste, sip, and swirl as you stroll down the historic winery's tree shaded lane. Pass through a tent filled with art and bid on works you can't resist. Then dance beneath the stars. This is a party you won't want to miss!

On Saturday and Sunday savor fine wines and cuisine in historic Sonoma Plaza. Enjoy cooking demonstrations presented by Viking Range Corporation; meander through fine art exhibits; attend open air performances from theater and opera to rock and the blues.

The entertainment continues on Saturday evening at Chateau St. Jean. Rendezvous with friends for the Salute Live Auction & Dinner. Gaming again? You bet! And, dozens of tantalizing lots - both silent and live - await your bid. Indulge in a sumptuous dinner presented by Executive Chef Bruce Riesenman of Park Avenue Catering on the winery's lawn beneath a festive white tent; then raise your paddles high and support the arts.

We hope you will join us and take part in Northern California's most magnificent wine country showcase event. Become a patron, benefactor, or sponsor. Immerse yourself in the art of fine living and well being. Proceeds benefit arts, cultural, and educational organizations of Sonoma Valley throughout the year. We look forward to Saluting the Arts with you!

Sincerely,
