| | Welcome, Moringa & Marigold!
What an amazing turnout for last night’s reception for our elephants. We had guests from the Sonoma Art Walk, Members of the Sonoma Chamber, and Mayor Patricia Farrar Rivas with several Sonoma City Council Members. Rosemary McNeely had the honor of cutting the ribbon during the ceremony. She discovered the Great Elephant Migration while in New York and decided to bring a pair to Sonoma Valley, which will be permanently on display in front of the Center.
The Sonoma Index-Tribune published photos online of our tiny herd moving to the front of the building. See the photos and read more about the history of the project here. |
