We’re thrilled to share that Napa Valley Support Services has been awarded a Community Fund grant from Arts Council Napa Valley

This support will help us elevate our Brown Street Gallery program even further — expanding art receptions and bringing in new professional art consultants to inspire and empower our incredible artists with disabilities.

Thanks to ACNV, our artists will have more opportunities to explore new mediums, build confidence, and share their talents with our Napa community in a culturally inclusive and meaningful way.

Stay tuned for our upcoming reception dates and join us in celebrating the creativity and diversity that make our community shine!

GET EXCITED and check out our summer Community Fund grant recipients! Five local projects in theater, traditional dance, music, and visual arts will receive funds for their work in the community. See what events and programs are coming to you!

In Loving Memory of John Demello

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of one of our longest-standing program participants, the incomparable John Demello. John has been a vibrant part of the Napa Valley Support Services family since the 1990s.

John was a true character, loved by everyone who knew him. His easy smile, work ethic, and big heart made him unforgettable. He adored trains and machinery, collecting hats and treasures, and he proudly worked at Napa Waste and Recycling since 2017.

One of our team members, Teri Smith, who knew John for over 24 years, shared these beautiful memories:

“I always felt safe arriving at work in the dark because John was always there locking up his bike in front of my office door. He announced every holiday, clapped loudly, and shouted ‘Woo Hoo!’ whenever staff arrived — or when City of Napa trucks drove by! They all knew John, and he knew them. He went to every ‘Big Game’ at Memorial Stadium, cheering on Vintage High, his alma mater. He’d greet you with, ‘Nice day today!’ or ‘I know that!’ He was really shy until you got to know him — but once you did, you were his friend for life.”

If you lived in Napa, you probably saw John riding his bike all over town, always waving and ready with a smile. He loved visiting the Wine Train station to watch the arrivals and departures — he even got to stand in the conductor’s seat once for a photo op!

In our 2022–2023 Annual Report, John and his crew were recognized for 25 years with our worksite partnership, and he proudly presented the award to his employer at our annual meeting.

We will always remember John’s warmth, reliability, and the joy he brought to our days. He will forever be part of the NVSS family. Please join us in keeping his loved ones in your thoughts, and feel free to share your own memories of John below
