If someone asked me to
list my top ten indulgences I could quickly rattle off a few without blinking
an eye - food, wine, shopping, and a night with friends. Certainly there are
more in my list of ten with dark chocolate close to the top, next to quiet
reading time.
If you are anything
like me, chances are good we have some of the same indulgent desires which is
why I am so excited to share about Art Uncorked: An Evening of Grape
Expectations, an event sponsored by the St. Charles City-County Library
Foundation. Last year, fifteen
talented artists shared their work while guests enjoyed foods
from eleven area restaurants and caterers paired with wines from
Three Squirrels Winery, Yellow Farmhouse Vineyard and
Rolling Meadows Vineyard as well as beer from Exit 6 Brewery and
O'Fallon Brewery. Sounds pretty amazing, doesn’t it?
This year, Art Uncorked
will be held on Saturday, September 21st at the Kathryn Linnemann
branch in St. Charles. This will be the 5th
annual event and each year, it gets bigger and better, gathering together more
artists, wineries, restaurants, and breweries for one incredible night.
The VIP Reception kicks
off at 6:30pm and General Admission opens at 7:30pm. Guests meet artists,
sample all the food and beverage delights, receive a commemorative wine glass, and
bid on a variety of unique items from our silent auction. The evening will once
again culminate with the Art Uncorked Raffle, the winner walking away with
$1,500! Tickets are on sale now at http://stchlibraryfoundation.org/ArtUncorked2013
Want to make Art Uncorked a truly great evening?
Here is my advice:
If
you are attending with a spouse or partnter: Get VIP tickets.
Trust me, you will love the special events we have planned for you.
If
you are looking for a fun night with the friends: Start
planning now and get a group of 8-10 together. At only $25 a ticket for general
admission, which includes your wine, beer, and food sampling, you are set for a
fantastic night.
If
you are an artist of any kind: We would love to have
you with us at Art Uncorked! Contact Karen Guccione-Englert at the Library Foundation (636-441-2300
ext. 1517 or kguccioneenglert@stchlibrary.org) and join the fun. Even if you can’t
attend for the evening, we would love to have a piece of your work for the
silent auction.
If
you want to grow your business or expand personal market:
You need to come to this event! Last year over 225 people from the greater St.
Charles County came out for a night of fun and to support the Library Foundation.
If you can’t come, make sure you are
represented in some manner. Have an autographed book, your business services,
or the like in our silent auction. Even better, become an Art Uncorked sponsor and
we advertise for you!
If
you want to support the Library Foundation: Donate your
time, treasure, or talent to one of our programs. The Library Foundation
supports to the work of the St. Charles City-County Library District but we
need you as a partner! Check out the Library Foundation at http://stchlibraryfoundation.org/ways-to-give
