Imagine being invited to the ultimate birthday party — an unforgettable evening with Jacques Pépin and some of the most revered chefs in Northern California.

This once-in-a-lifetime celebration begins with a reception in COPIA’s stunning Hestan Kitchen, where you can meet and greet beloved chefs as they serve an array of signature small plates they’ve prepared in Jacques’ honor. Then you’ll head to the Chuck Williams Culinary Arts Museum for a family-style dinner featuring some of Jacques’ favorite foods, including charcuterie, salads, cheeses, roast chicken, and more. Next, it’s a live auction where you can bid on unique lots, including Jacques’ original artwork or a stay in an Italian villa. We’ll end the evening with a sparkling toast and a spectacular birthday cake presentation. And throughout the evening, the wines will flow from more than a dozen Napa Valley vintners.
