January All sorts of wine & food & art & music events happen all the time at the Napa Valley Museum and the Culinary Institute of America. For Music, Theater and other non wine related listings try: Lincoln Theater (Yountville), Napa Valley Opera House (Napa), Cameo Cinema (St Helena), Uva (Napa) and alsoSilo's (Napa), Calistoga Inn , The White Barn (St Helena) Charity
wine auctions are a great source for rare and unusual bottlings. While
prices can get quite steep at the big name live auctions (although you
shouldn't forget the tax breaks, nor the karmic returns on your philanthropic
self indulgences.. ), it is often well worth checking out the attendant
silent auctions for more affordable gems. Unless otherwise noted all phone numbers are 707 area codes The links in the Calendar will take you directly to the event's website (which will open in a new window). If you want to find out more without leaving Bearshead please click on the details button at the bottom of each day, which will give you a more detailed rundown of the event. January
