Fiesta de Artes 2008
Fiesta de Artes 2008
(Light Rail to Winchester VTA Station and Shuttle 48 or 49 to Civic Center)
Once again, Fiesta de
Artes will fill the Civic Center grounds on
Saturday and Sunday, August 16th and 17th, 2008
to present the Town of Los Gatos' one and only art and wine festival. A
tradition for
over 30 years, the 2008 Fiesta
is the 12th 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.
"Serving the Children of
the World" ~ The Kiwanis
Club of Los Gatos will celebrate its 85th

building of better communities. Specifically, the Los Gatos
organization helps by offering scholarships, supporting local
schools, maintaining bike trails and aiding seniors. Other non-profit
