The Rotary Club of Lake Arrowhead hosted its annual Art & Wine Festivals at the private Arrowhead Lake Association Tavern Bay Beach Club. This year the event was held on Saturday, May 18th from 10:00am-6:00pm and on Sunday, May 19th from 10:00am-4:00pm. Activities included wine tasting, craft beer, fine art, entertainment, silent auction, and VIP Patio on the shores of Lake Arrowhead.
This Event has dramatically expanded and is now attracting exceptional artistic talent, in multiple media. The Festival now also draws some of the top-quality regional wine producers to showcase their vintages.
Inclement weather did not deter hundreds of festival-goers from enjoying this “must attend” Southern California, which raises money for the Rotary Club of Lake Arrowhead. The Rotarians put on three large events each year, including the PolaRotary Bear Plunge which is held in February, and the Classic Car & Motorcycle Show in July.
Here is a list of organizations supported by this event:
Operation Provider, Mountain Communities Boys & Girls Club, Mountain Pregnancy Center, Boy Scouts, Mountain Arts Network, Lake Arrowhead Classical Ballet, Rebuilding Together, Lake Arrowhead Elementary, Rim Education, Blue Star Moms, Russian Violinists, Girls Basketball, Citizens on Patrol, Water for Haiti, San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, Camp Paivika, Rim of the World Historical Society, Children’s Health International Projects, Action for Children-Zambia, and Project Child Save.
