Tickets are $20 with pre-registration or $25 at the door without pre-registration. All payments can be made at the door with cash or check; registration is encouraged to help us plan for attendance numbers. Register here.
The meal will include a choice of several homemade soups, bread, butter, coffee, and apple cider. Bid on a pie in the pie auction to enjoy for dessert with your table or to take home for later!
Champions of the Arts
In 2023, in celebration of 15 years of work since our organization’s beginnings, River Arts Alliance decided to honor people, past and present, who have made a significant impact on the arts and culture in the Winona area. Five individuals who were instrumental to the foundation and ongoing work of RAA were recognized as “Champions of the Arts” last year: Heidi Bryant, Julia Crozier, Vicki Englich, Greg Peterson and the late Bernadette Mahfood.
We are happy to announce that the Champions of the Arts recognized in 2024 will be: Eric Heukeshoven, Janet Heukeshoven, Margaret Shaw Johnson, Mary Singer, Colleen Wolner, and Larry Wolner. Thank you to the community members who nominated this year’s Champions! Please join us to celebrate at the Pie Walk on December 6.

Pies can be delivered at the event on December 6 or alternative arrangements can be made if needed.
