Arts Council Napa Valley Activity Update

Enjoy a Stay-cation
in Napa Valley this Summer

Cultural Plan Activity Update for July

This summer, instead of traveling, why not stay in beautiful Napa Valley? While people all over the world save up to spend a few days here, we get to live here every day. But how often do you get to experience our valley as a visitor might?

Why not try something you have been meaning to do but just never seem to find time for (ever taken a tour at di Rosa?), or discovering a new hidden gem (gone on a midnight paddle down Napa River?), or re-visiting an old favorite (seen a show at Lincoln Theater lately?)

Community Honorees

Sincerely,
Kristina Young, Acting Executive Director
