Montalvo Arts Center
“Open the Gates to CARE”
We look forward to welcoming you to the beautiful grounds of the Montalvo Arts Center for an afternoon of cocktails, camaraderie, and compassion. Mingle with others who share a passion for supporting Bay Area cancer patients.
What began as a small gathering of supporters has grown into one of Silicon Valley’s premier summer events—bringing together more than 300 guests each year and raising over $1 million to provide free, personalized support for individuals and families facing cancer.
