Join us for a special celebration of Frida Kahlo on July 6th at Cargo. This unique fiesta for the "Gran Artista" is inspired by her famous dinner parties otherwise known as días de los manteles largos which translates to "the days of the long table cloths".

Frida's style of cooking and entertaining was as vibrant and colorful as her painting. We’ll be recreating one of her famous soirees with the help of Feastly, Leah Jorgensen Cellars, Nicky USA, Mezcales de Leyenda and the talented team at Cargo.

Ticket price includes a special cocktail hour presented by Mezcales de Leyenda, live music from the renowned mariachi vocalist Edna Vazquez followed by a 4-course dinner and wine pairings from Leah Jorgensen Cellars.

Proceeds will be donated to ¡Salud!, a local non-profit that provides healthcare services and outreach to Oregon vineyard workers and their families. More information about the organization available here: http://saludauction.org/
