St. Helena Historical Society’s fundraiser, “Dinner in the Museum” is Saturday July 18, from 5:30 to 8:30 at the Heritage Center on 1255 Oak Ave. in St Helena.

This is the third annual fundraiser for the St. Helena Historical Society, and it’s become a local tradition.

Dinner includes tapas, paella, dessert and wine. McKahn Wines is our corporate sponsor, so get there early to sample their Rhone-style wines accompanied by a Flamenco guitar.

"Event guests look forward to our silent auction, and this year it’s available on our GalaBid website. Users can peruse auction items and bid on them from the comfort of their own homes. Note that it is not necessary to be at the event to claim your auction item. If you’re the high bidder, we can arrange pickup or delivery afterwards,” said President Steve Ericson.

Auction items to look forward to include a week at a Lake Tahoe vacation home, lunch for two at Meadowood’s Forum, a beautiful Italian gift basket from the St. Helena Olive Oil Company, etc.

Tickets are $150 per person and can be purchased on GalaBid or by check, which can be mailed to the Heritage Center, PO Box 87, St. Helena CA 94574.
