WELCOME TO THE 2015 MENDOCINO COUNTY
MUSHROOM, WINE & BEER FESTIVAL
We invite you to join us for our annual Mendocino County Mushroom,
Wine & Beer Festival! Each year in late October, as the first rains
start to fall, mushrooms flourish in abundance in Mendocino County,
which is home to over 3,000 types of mushrooms. It’s the perfect
place to sample and pick some of the 500 types of delicious edible
mushrooms, such as chanterelles, porcinis, morels, hedgehogs, and
even the extremely rare candy cap mushroom, a culinary treat with an
intense maple syrup flavor, which grows only along the northern coast
of California (and makes for delicious ice cream!).
We craft a myriad of events for your delight: mushroom, winemaker,
and brewmaster dinners, mushroom exhibits, guided mushroom
forays, bike, kayak and equine adventures, wine and mushroom
pairings, and much more!
Take your time to discover all that Mendocino County has to offer:
gourmet restaurants, unique inns, picturesque villages, friendly
wineries, outstanding breweries, majestic redwoods, and a rugged
seaside. Indulge yourself with a gourmet mushroom feast at an
amazing winemaker or brewmaster dinner, then cozy up by the fire
at the end of your perfect day in one of Mendocino County’s unique
inns and rest up so you can start the next day with an art class, join
a foraging adventure, attend a performance, visit our numerous
galleries, or simply relax and do nothing at all.
We look forward to seeing you in November!
Events take place throughout the County, from the inland valleys
to the coast. Plan your trip at www.visitmendocino.com
or by calling 1.866.466.3636.

Assemblage – The Art of Everyday
Discovery • NOV 7 & 8, 9:00AM-4:00PM
“Assemblage” is defined in
the dictionary as “an artistic
composition made from scraps,
junk, odds and ends such as
of paper, cloth, wood, stone
or metal.” Participants will use
many different materials to create
a unique assemblage artwork.
The goal of the workshop is to
have fun, explore the artistic
possibilities in everyday
materials, and complete a
piece that will be entered in an
assemblage exhibit scheduled at
Gualala Arts in January 2016.
