A Friendly Place which Specializes in Quality

Art is highlighted throughout the weekend of Salute to the Arts events, and is supported throughout the year through net proceeds. It is the festival's purpose to promote the professional original art available in the community, encouraging art as a viable business and profession; and to assist non-profit arts organizations with promotion and fundraising. Through Sonoma's annual Salute to the Arts, the Sonoma Valley Arts Alliance funds scholarships for high school seniors interesting in pursuing careers in the arts.
