The California Wine Dinner is the Museum’s annual signature fundraiser. It is an opportunity for guests to raise a glass to our shared heritage and reflect on the important role immigration continues to play in shaping our nation.
Guests experience a memorable evening of food and great wine. Tables of eight ensure an intimate tone and convivial atmosphere. Supporters include business professionals from banking, legal, manufacturing, and financial sectors, as well as their clients and spouses. Guests will enjoy a special hand-selected four-course meal artfully paired with unique Californian wines. The event includes an exciting live auction and raffle draw.
This event is made possible through our long-standing partnership with the United States Consulate General in Halifax, the Society for American Wines, and our winery partner, Arterra Wines.

About the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21
The Museum’s mandate is to collect, share and pay tribute to Canada’s immigration story. Pier 21 served as a gateway to Canada for one million immigrants between 1928 and 1971. It was also the departure point for 368,000 Canadian military personnel during the Second World War. In 2011, the Pier 21 historic site became The Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21. We are one of only six national museums in Canada and the only one east of Ottawa.
