The Napa Valley Vine Trail, Napa Valley Wine Train and members of the local arts community partnered to create the first art district in the Napa Valley, designated as the Rail Arts District (RAD) Napa.
Initial funding of $100,000 has been committed by the Vine Trail and Wine Train; together they are actively working towards several 'Early Win' projects.

The evening will include round trip transportation to the concert on one of their restored rail cars, a multi-course meal paired with Napa Valley wines, and the concert performance by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy with special guests.
