“We’re thrilled to present this special celebration of the Central Coast’s outstanding local winemakers, chefs and purveyors and raise funds for important local non-profit organizations,” co-founder of Piazza Hospitality Circe Sher said in the event’s 2022 news release.
At the event, there will be a Wine Wall with donations from local wineries as well as an art installation from SLO Art Museum. This installation will preview the large-scale mixed media works by nationally acclaimed artist Alisa Sikelianos-Carter.

The event will also host a silent auction, with items such as a luxurious two-night Sonoma getaway, an Ernie Ball Music Man Luke III HH Gasoline Guitar and an exclusive private dinner hosted by Fancher in Ox + Anchor’s Wine Library.
