Guests will enjoy delectable chocolate from 8 local culinary artists, sample boutique wine from more than 10 acclaimed California wineries, dine on scrumptous appetizers from Hyatt Chefs, and bid on tantalizing items in a live and silent auction. Yes, the silent auction is back due to popular demand!
This year's event holds special significance as our Executive Director, Karen Carey, is retiring and the Tahoe Chocolate & Wine Festival is officially her last day! The theme is Modern Renaissance as it's the beginning of a New Era; we will be honoring Karen's legacy and leadership which has contributed so much to the success of the agency's programs and community. We will also be celebrating new beginnings under the leadership of Paul Bancroft.
Festival goers will delight as we blend traditional Renaissance with a modern twist. Enjoy traditional performances and have your fortune read by a Tarot Reader. You will be transported to an era where music, art, dance, and science helped to define and shape a cultural shift towards enlightment and a focus on humanism. It is a great reminder that together we can make positive change.
You will learn how your support makes a difference in our community. Each guest will have the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution through silent and live auctions and a special Fund A Need.
Renaissance theme attire is strongly encouraged. Check out our Facebook and Pinterest pages for modern costume, fashion, accessory, hair and makeup ideas! Cocktail attire also appropriate.
