See Living Art at the Pacific Orchid Gala and Exposition

By

It's officially gala season, folks. And this year, the Bay Area will come together for a major bash honoring living masterpieces. The 2015 Pacific Orchid Exposition is coming to Fort Mason starting February 19. The orchid extravaganza will kick off with a gala fundraiser chock-full of entertainment, celeb appearances, light bites, wine tasting (featuring winners of the SF Chronicle's wine competition), and a silent auction boasting the crème de la crème of local products and experiences—green thumb optional.


This year's exhibition, "The Thrill of Discovery," has over 150,000 eye-popping orchids, including varieties that rarely make appearances stateside. Sponsored by the Taiwan Tourism Bureau, the Pacific Orchid Exposition is the largest orchid show in the US. Following the opening gala, the general show and plant sale will continue through February 22 with docent tours, potting demonstrations, and more. Tickets and additional details are available at orchidsanfrancisco.org.
