After our Opening Night films, join fellow guests at the Mill Valley Community Center for delicious savories and sweets, wine and cocktails and dazzling live music.
 

 

Opening Night Gala is less than two weeks away and now is the time to get your tickets before they sell out.  It’s going to be one spectacular night with all of your fellow film fan and party going friends.

After you’ve seen your favorite pick of this year’s Opening Night films join us at the Mill Valley Community Center.  Thanks to all of our event sponsors who are bringing in lot’s of fresh new elements for this extraordinary night.  And of course to Wells Fargo who we could not produce Opening Night without.

We’ll roll out the red carpet for you and greet you with a signature cocktail from HelloCello Limoncello of Sonoma.  Or, grab an IPA from our favorite local brewery Lagunitas.  If you prefer wine- we’ve got you covered.  Trinchero Family Estates is our featured winery that night and will be pouring their Menage a Trois brand. 

There will be plenty of good food again this year.  A special thanks to Chef Nico Martin of Pizza Antica who will be preparing the main menu.  And thank you to the many other event sponsors including Marin French Cheese, Judy’s Breadsticks, desserts by Champagne French Bakery and Peet’s coffee.

We couldn’t have a great party without world class entertainment.  For those of you who want to hit the dance floor, Marin County’s home grown band, “The Edge” will be playing Rock & Reggae.  

We’ll also have a special art show curated by our friend and talented artist Carly Ivan Garcia.  Carly, also a Marin County Native, has worked hard to bring in artists from all over the country.   There will be 14 internationally acclaimed artists’ works on display.   We know you’ll enjoy this amazing tribute to classic cinema: “A RAW Art Gallery Exhibit”

Don’t forget to have your picture taken by the Wells Fargo stagecoach, step and repeat or at their photo booth.  It will be a great memento of the night.

 

 

   See you on the red carpet!
