Come join us for Wine Experiencia 2012 which will be held in the inner courtyard of Old Mission San Miguel. Over two dozen wineries will be pouring, paired with delectable selections of hors d'oeuvres offered by local caterers and restauranteurs. As you stroll through the garden in the footsteps of the founding fathers and Native Americans, you will enjoy music and other entertainment. Guided tours will be offered in the museum and a silent auction will be held for many beautiful gifts which are donated by talented artists and artisans of the area. Tickets are $40.00 per person in advance or $45.00 per person at the door. For more information, please call Raynette Gregory at (805) 467-0067. All proceeds are to benefit the continued preservation and seismic retrofit of the Mission property.
