After Bird Calling Is Over, Go to the Bird House Gala!

Support the arts in Piedmont schools while having a great time. Each year the gala showcases the work of Bay Area artists as well as our own student artists who donate original works that range in style from elegant to whimsical, humorous to political.

The pieces (bird houses, paintings, prints, sculptures, etc…) are sold through a lively auction which is held in a lush Piedmont home garden, and is a sell-out event each year with attendance of 200+ people. The P A I N T S gala has grown in popularity due to its unique character as a fun and original arts event where the art, wine and food are all first rate. To top it all off, the Piedmont High School Bird Calling contestants make a brief appearance to regale us with their calls. Organizer Karen Stanton says there is no more popular party in Piedmont, and I agree! Tickets are $75 at the door, and if you are the first to email me (Kennedy@maureenkennedy.net) I'll give you a free ticket (I'm an annual sponsor of the event).
