Wine and music lovers came out in droves this year at the Wine Classic to benefit the Santa Clarita Valley Youth Orchestra. There were double the number of attendees at the event held at the California School for the Arts, compared with last years turn-out.
Six hundred people sampled the extraordinary wine and food at the event and bid on auction items, including art. Early figures show a potential net profit of up to $30,000. The funds will add to the needed $50,000 to fund the music, equipment, music stands, instructor salaries, master classes, instrument repairs and other expenses each year. 3700 youth have enjoyed the benefits of the program since it’s inception in 1990.
