About The Cameo Cinema
Gracing St. Helena’s Main Street since 1913, the Cameo experience is as unique as its audience. Thanks to Friends of the Cameo donors, it is the only single screen movie theater in the United States with a 6k Barco Laser Cinema Projector and 7.1 Dolby Atmos Sound. The house has 140 seats, including several ‘love seats’ for date night, as well as ADA seating. Cameo Cinema Foundation, CCF, is a non-profit 501c3 organization whose mission is to preserve and advance the Cameo Cinema. Its goal is to raise the needed funds to maintain the Cameo as a community asset. Donations safeguard the historic theater and ensure that the Cameo can continue to innovate, entertain, and offer inspiration to the Napa Valley for generations to come, just as past generations have done for over a century.

About Charles Krug:
In 1943, Italian immigrants Cesare and Rosa Mondavi purchased the historic Charles Krug property, Napa Valley’s oldest winery and the longest-running tasting room in California. The business was built on a foundation of family values, hard work and the European winemaking tradition; it remains a family-owned winery today, producing exceptional, estate-driven Napa Valley wines. The wineries operate under the direction of Peter Mondavi Jr. and Marc Mondavi, third-generation proprietors whose predecessor was the legendary Napa Valley icon Peter Mondavi Sr. The family is now proudly in its fifth generation, continuing a legacy started over 75 years ago and setting a framework for generations to come.
