International High School ~ French American International School Soirée des Arts et des Vins

Fall 2010 Soirée des Arts et des Vins - November 14th 2010

Our annual Soirée des Arts et des Vins is changing! It will continue to be a wonderful community event - where you are welcomed to our Dennis Gallagher Arts Pavilion to taste wine and food from around the block and around the world. What will change? Only the date for our event is changing. When better to celebrate the art of the vintner than at the time of the harvest? So come and enjoy the day; stock up on wine for the holidays (proceeds benefiting French American and International) and celebrate the art of the vintner and the art of the chef in our very own building dedicated to the arts!

Invitations to follow.

We need your help to make this event a succes! Please contact David Fierberg to find out how you can participate.

Spring 2010 Soirée des Arts et des Vins

More than 400 people attended our first ever Soirée des Arts et des Vins on April 25th 2010. The exceptionally successful event brought together the art of the vintner, the art of the chef and 2 stellar performing arts groups to our newly inaugurated Dennis Gallagher Arts Pavilion.

A huge thanks goes to our event Co-Chairs, High School Parent Clydene Bultman and Lower School Parent Debbie Zachareas. Their energy in recruiting our 26 wineries and 10 restaurants and culinary artists made for an exquisite event with a new twist on our wonderful Soirées of the past.

We also appreciate the many volunteers throughout the school who helped make this such a wonderful success. Our financial goal was exceeded by more than 50% of our goal and we've certainly paved the way for this new community-based event for years to come.

Bravo to all who attended, participated and helped make this happen!! A special tip of the hat goes to the SF Conservatory, SF Jazz and DJ Nathalie Neal for providing the music for our event.

We look forward to seeing again in November 2010 for our new Fall Soirée des Arts et des Vins – where it will become a regular entry in our events calendar.
