About the Gala
Our Celebration
The 2023 Reflect & Rejoice celebration will raise essential funds to support our important services as we honor vintners Michelle and Robin Baggett, of Alpha Omega, for their philanthropic commitment to the Napa Valley. We are excited to hold our signature event on Friday, September 8 at 6:30pm, at Castello di Amorosa.
For 16 years, our annual gala has been one of the highlights of the fall social season in the Napa Valley and always offers an experience to remember. The event will feature a fun cocktail and wine reception, exciting entertainment, and an elegant dinner, followed by the opportunity to bid on select premiere live auction lots and “fund-a-need” in support of the compassionate care we provide throughout our community.
Live Auction
John Curley, called "the Mick Jagger of the Charity Auctioneer world," will join us as this year's auctioneer. An active radio personality and multiple Emmy Award TV host, John's theatre background combines with his compassionate and dynamic personality to entertain and mesmerize any audience. A stunning selection of exclusive auction lots have been created - from unique dinners, amazing travel opportunities, and rare wines - you won't want to miss your opportunity to bid!
