Your sponsorship truly matters. Please support the 2025 Art Meets Wine in the High Desert fundraiser.

On Saturday, May 17, the Sunriver Women’s Club will host our seventh “Art Meets Wine in the High Desert” event. This fundraiser helps our neighbors in need in south Deschutes County, and we rely on sponsorships to maximize our giving. We hope you’ll join us this year. Thanks to the support of sponsors like you, we raised $30,000 for worthy causes in 2024. (A list of nonprofits supported by our Philanthropy Program is enclosed.)

About the event

Art Meets Wine in the High Desert features tastings from 10-11 Oregon wineries, along with local artist demonstrations, live music, food, a wine wall and an online auction. Last year’s event attracted 240 participants from central Oregon and beyond, and 100% of those surveyed said they would attend again. It’s a unique and popular event, and as a sponsor, your name will be front and center in our communications and promotions.
