Cocktail attire inspired by the sea

Please join us in a whimsical underwater garden by the bay presented by the Board of Trustees and the Discovery Council. The festivities begin with cocktails and nibbles while you browse and bid on silent auction packages perfect for Mother's Day. The evening continues with a feast by Paula LeDuc, a thrilling live auction, and dancing to the Bay Area's premier Beatles cover band, The Sun Kings.
