March of Dimes Chefs Auction Natural History Museum

March of Dimes Chefs Auction Natural History Museum

The 2013 Signature Chefs & Master Mixologists Gala Auction was a culinary extravaganza spotlighting celebrity chefs and master mixologists, gourmet food tastings, and one-of-a-kind experiential auction items in support of the March of Dimes. The gastronomic showcase took place on Sunday, November 17, 2013 at the San Diego Natural History Museum in Balboa Park, in San Diego, CA.  All proceeds went to support research, education, and advocacy programs aimed to reduce the rates of prematurity, birth defects, and infant mortality.

We were delighted to have donated onsite San Diego Event Photography services, photo processing, and image gallery hosting to the March of Dimes for this wonderful event. Featured on this page are a few images from the event. Be sure to see the complete gallery of photos from the March of Dimes Signature Chefs & Master Mixologists Gala Auction (no password is required).
