Chamber Of Commerce Mountain View: 42nd Annual Art & Wine Festival Continuing the Tradition

The Mountain View Art & Wine Festival is the Chamber's largest fundraiser, enabling the organization to provide a variety of important services, programs, and scholarships to the community. The festival is September 7th and 8th, 2013.

 

Chamber CEO Oscar Garcia says “We continue the tradition of highlighting the region's best artists, wine and food. Earlier this year we were honored to be recognized by the Metro as the "Best Art & Wine Festival" in Silicon Valley. This year we are expanding our music lineup to include, for the first time ever, Salsa music. Salsa is a very popular genre, especially in the Bay Area. And this year's Art & Wine Festival will be a celebration for everyone to enjoy.”
