Vintage in the Community
Vintage Wine Merchants and the San Jose Museum of Art
At Vintage, we are dedicated to breaking down barriers to wine drinking by embracing wine education and exploration. We hold a strong belief that, in the end, wine is a symbol of celebration–a celebration of the moments of our lives as we live them. And day to day, nothing affects our lives more than family, friends, and the community around us.
It is this acknowledgement of the importance of community in our lives that we have formed a long-term partnership with the San Jose Museum of Art, a non-profit organization whose mission also involves removing barriers-the barriers that impede access to art.
About the Museum
The San Jose Museum of Art is one of the leading institutions dedicated to visual culture in Silicon Valley. It is a community anchor, ensuring artistic excellence and access for a diverse populace through its free admission policy. The Museum endeavors to sustain and cultivate the importance and value of the visual arts in our society and to play a leadership role in fostering the growth and development of the visual arts community in San Jose. The essential values of the Museum are: 1) access to contemporary art with active outreach to remove the barriers for audiences of all backgrounds and cultures; 2) commitment to education, scholarship, cultural diversity, and community involvement; 3) dedication to inclusiveness, a spirit of openness, partnership, and collaboration; and 4) an invitation to dream, take risks and be innovative.
The San Jose Museum of Art and its educational programs are supported by the City of San Jose, the National Endowment for the Arts, the California Arts Council, the William Randolph Hearst Education Endowment, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the Koret Foundation, and Museum members.
