The greatest aspect of Festival Napa Valley is its philanthropic\nroots. The Festival is committed to enriching the Napa Valley community through\ninnovative performances and inspiring education programs throughout the year. The\nimpact of Festival Napa Valley certainly extends beyond the month of July. As\nCalifornia public schools remove performing arts education from the classroom,\nFestival Napa Valley works with the Napa school system to add it back in for\nthe students. Each festival ticket purchase assists a child in art education,\nover $1 million has been invested in Napa County public school\u2019s arts education\nthus far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a Board of Director and Co-chair of this incredible\norganization, Leslie Frank loves to take part in the hard work that goes into\nmaking Festival Napa Valley a success year after year. This year, Leslie was\nthe master of ceremonies for the preeminent event, Arts for All Gala, hosted at\nHall Winery which raised a record-setting $2.6 million. Proceeds from the event\nprovide free and affordable access to Festival concerts, arts education\nprograms for thousands of public-school children, and scholarships for emerging\nmusicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThanks to the spirited generosity of the donors and sponsors who supported the Arts for All Gala, Festival Napa Valley is having a profound impact in improving the quality of life in our beloved Napa Valley. We are providing funding for public school arts education, and ensuring concerts are accessible by offering free and affordable programs that everyone in our community can enjoy” <\/em>says Leslie Frank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
