Craneway Pavilion, a historic building with sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay, set the backdrop for the annual Lifehouse Great Chefs & Wineries fundraiser on May 6.
The brilliantly curated evening began with a feast of small plates expertly prepared by chefs from the Bay Area’s best restaurants, accompanied by an impressive lineup of elite wineries from California’s finest growing regions.
After dinner, guests boogied down to Tower of Power and watched the Lifehouse Performers. Rock legend Huey Lewis appeared as longtime Honorary Chair and Insalata’s Chef Heidi Insalata Krahling returned as the event’s expert culinary host. Betty Yu from KPIX was the event emcee. The $700,000 raised will go directly to provide quality programs and support for Lifehouse’s community of people with developmental disabilities in the Bay Area.
