​Join House of Stone Charitable Organization for an intimate evening of story, art, wine, and connection at OAKSTOP's Manning Gallery in Downtown Oakland.

​Generously sponsored by Charles Schwab and Hightower Advisory.

​Drop a stone in water — and watch the circles grow. It started with one sculpture. Then a crate. Then an orphanage that needed funding. 26 years and $2.5 million in projects later — none of it was planned. All of it was possible.

​Art is how we meet as equals. A short journey through one of the great untold art stories of the 20th century — Zimbabwean stone sculpture, from a tobacco farm in the 1960s to the world's great galleries. Original works by first-generation masters on display. Select pieces available for purchase.

​A high school senior, a school principal, and a borehole that changed everything. Lukas Herz partnered with Mr. Gutu, principal of Chishoshe Primary School in Zimbabwe, to bring clean water, a garden, a maize field, and a chicken project to his school. He was 17. He wasn't afraid to ask.
