The evening will begin with cocktails on the lawn, followed by a gourmet dinner in the Villa, and dancing in the Oval Garden. Wander through the Villa to discover the speakeasy, the after dinner café and dessert bar, and classic films. This spectacular evening that will include music from grammy-nominated jazz pianist David Benoit and San Francisco 20s band Lavay Smith & Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers, vintage cars, champagne and specialty cocktails, and a live auction that will feature once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
