Montecito, CA, January 23, 2024 – A special part of this year’s Festival of Hearts fundraiser is the beloved Heart-Art silent auction. Local artists, including Jeff Bridges, were given blank, paper mâché hearts to transform into exquisite pieces of art using any medium of their choosing. The funds from this event raised will support Friendship Center’s commitment to never turning someone in need away due to their inability to pay. This vital financial support ensures that seniors and adults living with dementia can benefit from the organization’s programs, while also offering their caregivers much-needed respite.
Attendees can enjoy music, a delicious meal and the comradery of a caring community by the sea. Guests are encouraged to wear their favorite nautical attire– sailor stripes, seaside elegance, and touches of silver to honor Friendship Center’s 25th Annual Festival of Hearts.
Friendship Center’s Festival of Hearts event will take place on Saturday, February 3, 2024 from 12:00 pm to 2:30 pm at the Rosewood Miramar Beach. To learn more or to purchase tickets by Friday, January 26, 2024, please go to
