Nothing says “child outreach” better than a wine tasting event. Sample your favorite vintage, comment on the bouquet (”Do I detect a hint of… boysenberry?”), discuss it with a sommelier, and best of all, do it for the kids!

We’re serious. The Boys and Girls Club of Newark is having their 23rd annual Wine Tasting Benefit, with all proceeds going to support the club. No, the kids won’t be there, and it’s likely for the best. The grown-ups in attendance will be doing their part to pay for another year of great BGCN programming. We designed the invitations for the event, and if we say so ourselves, they look pretty slick with this distressed wood effect. So please, have a drink. For the children.

We love The Hub. Newark Now’s quarterly newsletter is always one of our favorite projects, and it’s our honor and pleasure to help tell the world about all the good that comes from this amazing organization. We would go on, but anyone who’s seen this site knows all about our Newark Now crush. And if you want to learn more about them, don’t take our word for it, visit the site! Or volunteer!
