BARNSDALL PARK’S POPULAR WINE TASTING SERIES SET TO RETURN FOR AN EXTENDED 16TH SEASON
LA’s Quintessential Summer Fundraiser Runs from June 6 to September 26, 2025
Barnsdall Art Park Foundation is excited to announce the return of its iconic fundraiser, Barnsdall Fridays Wine Tasting, beginning on June 6, 2025. Barnsdall Fridays are like finding the hidden, beating heart of Los Angeles and, building on the tremendous success of last year's event, the 16th season is set to extend through September 26, 2025.
All proceeds for this annual fundraising series support programming within the Park. More than ever, this event will provide essential funding to help sustain Barnsdall Art Park amidst the City of Los Angeles's newly proposed budget cuts, which put much of the site's cultural programming at risk.
The event, which has always attracted sell-out crowds, takes place on Olive Hill and the West Lawn of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hollyhock House, the sole UNESCO World Heritage site in Los Angeles, every Friday from June 6 to September 26 (excluding July 4) from 5:30 PM to 9 PM.
Experience stunning sunsets while indulging in exquisite wines from long-standing artisanal partner at Silverlake Wine; relish delectable selections from a variety of local food trucks; enjoy carefully-curated DJ performances; And, relish the unparalleled view of the Hollywood Sign and Griffith Park Observatory in the city! Our neighbors at Kaiser Permanente are back as lead supporter of the 2025 season. Attendees are advised to bring blankets for optimal comfort.
While onsite, discover a series of compelling exhibitions at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery (LAMAG) and Barnsdall Junior Arts Center Gallery. Commencing in June, Friday Night Arts at LAMAG will offer a dynamic blend of artist-led presentations and interactive installations, opening with an immersive installation by prolific multimedia artist, Bill Barminski. COLA 2025 exhibition, an annual exhibition of new works by LA-based artists, will be showcased throughout July and August.
Wine tasting tickets cost $45 with other tier options that include a tour of Hollyhock House starting at $80. *A limited number of tours of the main interior of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hollyhock House, the only UNESCO World Heritage site in Los Angeles, will be offered
The Park is located at 4800 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90027. Parking is very limited; rideshare and public transportation are highly encouraged. Designated Driver tickets are available, too. To purchase tickets, visit: www.barnsdall.org
