Fiesta de Artes 2006
Fiesta de Artes 2006
Once again, Fiesta de Artes will fill the Civic Center grounds on Saturday and Sunday, August 12th and 13th, 2006 to present the Town of Los Gatos' one and only art and wine festival. A tradition for over 30 years, the 2006 Fiesta is the tenth event sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Los Gatos. With the departure of the Strawberry Festival, the Fiesta is the town's remaining venue for artisans, vintners, micro-brewers, entertainers and merchants to gather and celebrate with visitors from all over the San Francisco Bay Area.
Fiesta de Artes attracts tens of thousands of visitors each year to the historic Town of Los Gatos for two days of music, art, crafts, food and wine. The non-stop entertainment includes live bands, local talent, and over 150 quality vendors. Collectors and first-time visitors alike appreciate each year's custom-designed commemorative wine glasses that the Kiwanis Club sells to benefit local charities.
