LexisNexis Wine Tasting & Dinner to Benefit Culture Works
For years, the Culture Works Campaign for the Arts at LexisNexis has included a hugely popular wine tasting event fundraiser. Held at the Dorothy Lane Market Culinary Center in Centerville, this fun event brought together friends and co-workers to socialize and sample some of the excellent offerings from the DLM wine cellar and Culinary Center while also raising funds for the arts community. Sadly, this event was cancelled in 2020 due to COVID-19.
LexisNexis was determined to hold an event for 2021, so they have arranged for Dorothy Lane Market to provide an exciting, virtual wine and dinner event that will take place via Zoom. This event will be an opportunity for you to enjoy a delicious fully prepared meal and two full bottles of wine provided by DLM while interacting with fellow arts and wine lovers from your safely socially distanced home.
You will pick up your prepared meals and wine (packaged for two) at the Dorothy Lane Culinary Center the day before or the day of the event. Plate and warm your prepared meals, pour your wine, and connect to the Zoom meeting at 6:30pm on Thursday, April 22 to hear DLM Chef Carrie Walters discuss the preparation of the food you are enjoying and Wine Manager George Punter share information and history about the two wine selections he has provided. We will also share a few short arts performances for you to enjoy between the conversations.

DAI Announces New At-Home Tasting Event!
The Dayton Art Institute (DAI) has announced a new at-home tasting event, Pop, Fizz, Clink!, taking place on May 1.
Featuring sparkling wines, beers, hard seltzers and special surprises in a commemorative Party Pack, this online fundraiser takes the place of the popular Bourbon & Bubbles tasting event, which will not be held in 2021 due to the pandemic.
“While we are eager to welcome everyone back to in-person events at the museum, we felt it would be best to take a safe and cautious approach this spring,” said Dayton Art Institute Director & CEO Michael R. Roediger. “Building on the success of last year’s Virtual Oktoberfest fundraiser, our team has created what promises to be a unique and fun at-home event. You won’t want to miss this chance to sample some unique beverages and join us for an exclusive online party.”
Pop, Fizz, Clink! Party Packs are on sale now at www.daytonartinstitute.org/popfizzclink.
They include three bottles of wine, two beer selections and two specialty hard seltzers, plus special treats and access to an exclusive online party taking place on May 1. Upgraded VIP Party Packs are also available and include additional treats and gourmet goodies!
Party Packs are priced at $90 for museum members and $100 for non-members. Each Party Pack includes: Campo Viejo cava, Yulupa sparkling and Chole prosecco; New Belgium Dominga Mimosa Sour and Deschutes Obsidian Stout; Press Seltzer and Vizzy Lemonade; one bag of turtle pecan sea salt gourmet popcorn from the American Classic Snack Company; and access to the online party on May 1.
Upgraded VIP Party Packs are priced at $140 for museum members and $150 for non-members. In addition to the items included in the Party Pack, the VIP upgrade includes: a six-piece chocolate box from Winan’s Chocolates + Coffee; an additional bag of bourbon beer cheese gourmet popcorn from the American Classic Snack Company; and two cupcakes in a jar from Twist Cupcakery, which was recently named best cupcakes in the state by MSN and East This Not That.
“The exclusive online party will include music, beer and wine tasting presentations, and many other surprises,” Roediger said. “And of course, it only makes sense to include a ‘virtual tour’ of POP Art in the museum’s collection, presented by our own Chief Curator and Director of Education, Dr. Jerry Smith. The tour will serve as a great tie-in to our upcoming Special Exhibition, Changing Times: Art of the 1960s, which opens later in May.”
Party Packs are only available for a very limited time and must be purchased in advance via the DAI website. Sales end April 14, with pickup taking place Saturday, May 1, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. This is a pickup-only event; Party Packs cannot be shipped. The DAI will announce additional details about Party Pack pickup later in April. The online party begins at 7 p.m. on May 1.
Pop, Fizz, Clink! is made possible with sponsorship support from Bonbright Distributors, Dayton International Airport, Enterprise Roofing & Sheet Metal, Heidelberg Distributing and White Allen European Auto Group, with special thanks to American Classic Snack Company, Twist Cupcakery and Winan’s Chocolates + Coffees.
All proceeds from this new fundraiser help benefit operations at the Dayton Art Institute.
“I hope everyone will take the opportunity to sip and savor, while helping support the museum as we begin the difficult process of recovering from financial impact of the pandemic,” Roediger added. “If you’re not a drinker, you can also go to the Pop, Fizz, Clink! page on our website, make an online donation to the event, and you will get access to the May 1st online party!”
Party Pack purchasers must be at least 21 years old and residents of the state of Ohio. Participants who place orders are asserting that they are 21 years old or more and are Ohio residents. Participants must produce a valid photo identification, including proof of Ohio residency and age, when picking up packages. No exceptions will be made.
The Dayton Art Institute collection galleries are open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. For more information about planning a visit, go to www.daytonartinstitute.org or call 937-223-4ART (4278).
