Icons of Design

 - THE EVENT -

Music in the Vineyards is excited to present a first-ever holiday gala at the stunning and historic Inglenook Estate. The Coppola Family invites you to an evening of beautiful music, a candlelit dinner in the Barrel Room, a dazzling live auction in support of Music in the Vineyards, and a joyous return to live music and dancing.

The evening honors Napa Valley Icons of Design, Molly Chappellet and Robilee Frederick Deane, whose contributions to the arts and design are both iconic and inimitable. Join us in honoring the legacy of these two beloved women who have profoundly influenced the cultural landscape of  the Napa Valley and beyond.
