Dorothy Indelicato: Another successful art show for Delicato

The Delicato 28th Fine Art Show was very successful. Over 100 fine art pieces, from the almost 200 entries we received, were displayed for our visitors to enjoy. Saturday’s award ceremony was attended by most of the artists. Hors d’oeuvres and wine were leisurely consumed with lots of conversation and sharing of ideas.

The funds awarded as well as art sales will help many artists continue their passion of providing art for many to share. It was rewarding to see the artists and our customers enjoying conversations that included both wine and art. (How nicely the two complement each other.)

We had many people over the month arrive expressly to view the art and to vote on the Visitors’ Choice Award. (The Visitor’s Award winner this year was “Stars and Stripes Forever” by Jaime Kimbler of Escalon.)

The media coverage provided by The Bee and others helped a great deal bringing people to our annual “art gallery.” Thank you for helping us support the art community.

Dorothy Indelicato, chairwoman, Delicato Family Vineyards, Manteca
