Honoring what is truly special and unique about our region and this festival, we are honored to present the Howard Scott Gentry Lifetime Achievement Award and Gala dinner. Considered the godfather of agave, this dinner celebrates the achievements of the industries best, brightest and most committed to the broader holistic aspect of this unique and noble plant. Honoring not just one person to be announced at the dinner, we also showcase and raise money for four of Southern Arizona’s most impactful conservation organizations.
