About Our Fundraiser
The Hill Street Country Club is proud to present our first fundraising Gala, highlighting and enabling the contributions and influence of BIPOC visionaries of DIY arts culture in support of funding education and arts programming at the HSCC for the 2022 Fiscal Year. High Tea is a celebration of Hill Street's autonomy and vision for the future of art institutions.
In order to execute our vision, the Hill Street Country Club is teaming up with Botica, a Black, queer-owned culinary and craft collective to build a sustainable art ecosystem through our fundraising event, ‘High Tea’.
Your support of High Tea is a form of mutual aid that will help fund the future of arts programming, and building a more sustainable and accessible future for the working class art community in San Diego County.
We encourage all past patrons to consider attending or donating to this event, or become an official sponsor. Donations of $250 or more are tax deductible.

Our Work
The Hill Street Country Club is an art non-profit dedicated to social and racial justice programming and free curated art exhibitions for our diverse socio-economic communities.
In 2012, Dinah Poellnitz and Margaret Hernandez left their positions at a mainstream art institution and created the Hill Street Country Club to better serve their communities and expand art opportunities for artists like themselves. We are proud of how far we have come in the past 10 years and the impact we have had on emerging art leaders. However, we are still working towards securing financial and creative sustainability in our ever changing arts and culture landscape. As an unconventional art space ran completely by women of color and from communities of color, we must now reinvent our approach to maintaining our voice at the table.
About High Tea:The HSCC x Club Boutika are working together to reclaim the language and spaces of concepts that traditionally oppressed our communities and repurpose these ideas to celebrate Black and Brown artisans and leaders & our allies.
The HSCC x Club Boutika’s approach to High Tea is to unify the different sectors of creatives within the San Diego area to underline the rich, meaningful & diverse culture we share across communities of color.
✺ High Tea is a concept that originated in England during the 1700s, preserving the idea of catering/serving tea and confections to the white-elite, aristocrats and the wealthy throughout the hours of afternoon to supper in a leisurely and posh fashion. In the early 19th century, Black Tea Rooms were created for the upper crust of black society after being excluded from white-run tea rooms post-slavery.

The Hill Street Country Club x Club Boutika acknowledge that Oceanside and Goat Hill Park mark ancestral land that was wrongfully stolen from the Kumeeyay and Luiseño peoples. The HSCC extends its respect and gratitude to the Kumeyaay and Luiseño peoples who have lived here since time immemorial. Today, the Kumeyaay and Luiseño peoples continue to maintain their political sovereignty and cultural traditions as vital members of the San Diego Community. High Tea is a reclamation of community, culinary, and culture, and we understand that our work is not done until our indigenous siblings are liberated, celebrated and affirmed along side all members of Turtle Island. Settler colonialism is an ongoing issue and we must continue to build our mindfulness of our present participation, and encourage our community to do the same.
