Please join us to celebrate Orange Tree Project’s first annual Orange Tree Soirée. This special event celebrates the value of design and raises funds to provide design grants for nonprofits to become more fruitful in their community.

Step into a beautiful urban garden filled with fresh flowers, fruit trees and shimmering lights. Enjoy a gourmet Latin-inspired menu prepared by chef & partner Eduardo Baeza of award-winning City Tacos and Tostadas. Sample craft beers from ChuckAlek Independent Brewers and learn about their heritage firsthand from head brewer Grant Fraley and partner Marta Jankowska. Experience premier wine from Mexico’s Valle de Guadalupe.

Bid on spectacular items featuring local artists and designers, who transform watering cans into one-of-a-kind works of art, and other exclusive items to be unveiled at the event.

All event proceeds will ensure that Orange Tree Project continues its mission. Orange Tree Project provides design grants for qualified 501c3 organizations and introduces new rules of engagement for pro bono partnerships, radically improving outcomes for all involved. Grant recipients are paired with leading creative professionals who help them stand out, reach more people, and amplify their community impact. Some nonprofits to date include 1 Billion Thirsty, Tender Loving Canines Assistance Dogs and Telegraph Hill Neighborhood Center.
