30th Anniversary Benefit Gala
Saturday, October 6, 2007
Fourth Street Summit Center, San Jose

It’s our biggest fundraising event of the year! We start with a week-long silent auction at the Museum September 27 to October 4, followed by a Saturday evening gala with an exciting live auction of one-of-a-kind textile art, fine wines, golf packages and more. We’re especially pleased to have the local NBC affiliate, NBC11, as our broadcast media sponsor and the San Jose Mercury News as our print media sponsor. Other sponsors include the Cotton Patch and Empty Spools.

The funds raised from this benefit event support Museum operations, including our popular children’s education programs and diverse exhibitions.
