The Wine & Food Foundation is known for its unrivaled events. We offer small group events – like wine tastings and education classes – as well as our well-known and often sold-out annual premier events.

We post new events and classes here on the website, in weekly email blasts (sign up on the homepage!), and on social media. Check back frequently for updates!

FEATURED EVENT

2024 RARE & FINE WINE AUCTION GALA

ABOUT THE AUCTION GALA

The Rare & Fine Wine Auction Gala is the Wine & Food Foundation’s flagship event and our biggest fundraiser of the year! We use the funds we raise at this event to continue our mission to cultivate a community that celebrates the art, culture, and enjoyment of wine and food through educational programs and unparalleled events. (See below for more about philanthropy.)

The evening will kick off with an auction preview reception where all 70+ auction lots will be displayed, and guests will enjoy wines from our Featured Winemaker’s portfolio. Next will be an elegant dinner complemented by an impressive wine selection. The highlight of the evening will be the electrifying live auction, where spirited bidders will compete for rare and fine wines and other luxury packages.

IMBIBE: The WFF Education Series

IMBIBE means to consume or absorb – and that’s exactly what you’ll do in our classes… consume and absorb wine, food, and knowledge.

We host 2-3 IMBIBE classes each month – usually on Wednesdays or Thursdays. Now that we are seeing the light at the end of the Pandemic tunnel, we are offering a mix of virtual and in-person classes. These classes are a great way to learn, and engage with other like-minded members of our community.  We have a variety of highly knowledgeable professionals who impart great information, and usually a few good laughs, too!
