San Diegans who have a penchant for painting can create
their own masterpiece while benefiting arts education in schools on
Sunday, March 23 from 2 to 5 p.m. at Mia Francesca in the Del Mar Highlands
Town Center. Proceeds will support ArtReach free visual arts education
workshops in local K-6 schools that have no resources for art. An ArtReach
artist will help guests paint a “Flower Close Up” step-by-step. No experience
is necessary to participate! All art materials are included in the ticket price
of $45, and attendees will be able to enter raffles for theatre tickets and
more.
During the event, Mia Francesca will offer attendees a special
no-host menu featuring house favorites including Chef de Cuisine Woody Benitez’
Pollo Romano, Tilapia Fresca, Spinach Ravioli, Chicken Caesar Salad and a
cheese-filled focaccia topped with arugula and speck. Guests will also be able
to select their favorite reds and whites from Mia Francesca’s wine list.
