American Art Starts Here: The 26th Annual Bacchanal Wine Gala and Auction
Advance registration is required.
Step into an evening of elegance and purpose at the Bacchanal Wine Auction and Gala, an unforgettable fundraising event supporting art education at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA). This year's celebration will be especially memorable as we honor two extraordinary individuals: Bo Bartlett (Certificate of Fine Art, ’80), one of PAFA's most recognized and prolific living alumni, and Robert E. Kohler and Frances Coulborn Kohler,* philanthropic leaders.
At this year’s signature fundraising event, we’ll toast thoughtfully paired Chappellet Winery wines over a specially planned gourmet meal by an acclaimed chef. Top off the celebration with bids on distinctive auction items and connecting with the community of dedicated PAFA supporters.
