The Sonoma Botanical Garden hosted its second annual Garden Gala on October 4, a sold-out event that raised more than $300,000 to support the Garden’s collection, special exhibitions, and programs.
This year’s theme, “Songbird Soirée,” drew inspiration from “Winged Wonders,” an exhibition featuring fantastical bamboo birds. The theme celebrated the beauty of native birds throughout the Garden.
Guests enjoyed a poolside farm-to-table dinner prepared by chef Ari Weiswasser, paired with local wines from Benziger Family Winery and Imagery Estate Winery.
These supporters were honored for their contributions to the botanical garden.
