Follow on Google News | SVMA's 2024 Gala – A Celebration of ArtBy: Sonoma Valley Museum of Art Around 200 people enjoyed the entertaining MC and auctioneer Ellen Toscano whose enthusiasm was matched by the generous bids of SVMA supporters. A stirring documentary produced by National Geographic filmmaker Ron Bowman included testimonials from Kristen Madsen, Linda Keaton, Alistair Monroe, Kevin McNeely, Rosemary McNeely, Miki Hsu Leavey, Margie Maynard, and Jeanette Rodriguez Chien. Gala auction items included vacation packages to Hawaii and Puerto Vallarta, Tibetan rugs designed by Tsherin Sherpa, and two paintings created live that evening by world-renowned performance painter, David Garibaldi.
