A Holiday Wine Tasting Fundraiser to Support Project MOST

Shay Siegelby Shay Siegel

Home Community
Enjoy wine and cheese recommendations for the perfect pairing

Save the date for a holiday wine tasting to support a great cause! The wine tasting fundraiser hosted by Project MOST will take place virtually over Zoom on Thursday, December 16th at 7pm. These delightful wine options will have you feeling merry while spreading cheer this holiday season!

 

When asked how Project MOST decides where to put their fundraising efforts, Jacqueline Gravina-Wohlleb says, “We carefully consider the goals of our fundraising efforts and look to our community for inspiration. Last year’s Holiday Wine Tasting event featured two wines from local winemakers here on the East End – a white wine from Michael Cinque of Amagansett Wine & Spirits, and a red wine from the private Leo family vineyard. We were proud to offer access to our participants and to showcase these two great wines through an event led by the Virtual Wine Coach. This year we expect the options to be equally exciting, with wine supplied by Michael Cinque of Amagansett Wine & Spirits and John McGovern of East Hamptons Wines and Liquors, Inc.”

 

Melissa Principi and Michelle Waters are the co-founders of Virtual Wine Coach, and they are each Level 2 Certified Sommeliers. They will be guiding participants through the event with the pre-selected wines, all from the comfort of your own home. All proceeds from the event will support Project MOST to continue their mission in the community.

 

Jacqueline of Project MOST says, “Our mission is to inspire students and families to achieve their utmost in life through after school, summer, and community programming. Our objective is to encourage all children and families to be empowered community members—to want to learn, create and express themselves, and to help others.”

 

The wine tasting fundraiser was a huge success in 2020, so after community feedback Project MOST decided to bring the event back for a second year. Jacqueline says, “This wine fundraiser is a direct consequence of having to adapt and shift to virtual events. We met the hosts of the Virtual Wine Coach, Melissa and Michelle, and learned more about their fun and interactive virtual wine tastings. The idea appealed during the holidays of 2020, when we were in the height of home-celebration, as a fun experience that people could feel safe and comfortable participating in. This year, we decided to offer a second annual wine tasting fundraising event because the feedback we received was that our participants enjoyed relaxing in their cozy homes while nibbling on good cheese and sipping delicious wine…all in their comfy clothes! They were able to have the festive experience combined with the low-stress atmosphere of home.”

 

Project MOST provides affordable access to dynamic enrichment programs for all children. They help members of the community bridge the experience gap that some children and families may not be otherwise able to reach. Jacqueline says, “Our central focus has always been to provide quality enrichment programs for children, both within the local schools and at our Community Learning Center. We are responsive to the needs of the community as a whole though.”

 

With every event that they host and each fundraising effort, Project MOST, at its core, is about supporting and enriching the local community. Jacqueline notes, “With every program that we offer, no matter the location, we consider how we can positively impact the lives of the students and their families, whether it be through encouraging personal interest, bravely trying a new activity, helping them to strengthen a skill, or even connect to other people. The human connection between each other and between our educators and the students, and providing access to experiences, are both very important to us.”

 

Amagansett Wine & Spirits and East Hampton Wines & Liquors, Inc. have kindly donated the wine for this event. Get ready to cozy up at home with a great wine selection and recommended cheese pairing while supporting a mission that makes a difference in our wonderful community!

 

Registration is $80 per household and includes two bottles of wine and advanced recommendations of cheese pairings. Spots for the event must be reserved by December 15th. The Zoom link and cheese recommendations will be provided upon sign-up. Project MOST and Virtual Wine Coach can’t wait to give you the ultimate wine experience this holiday season!

  • Hilary Matt Interiors is a residential design firm started and located in New York City with projects spanning across the country, including in the Hamptons and East End.⁠
⁠
Hilary, principal and founder, is known for a bold aesthetic that is comfortable and livable. She always keeps her clients at the forefront so they can express themselves as individuals through their spaces. After starting out in the fashion industry, Hilary felt a call to interior design where she has been bringing her unique approach and style to every space as the brand continues to grow.⁠
⁠
Hilary spoke more about her background, how each HMI project differs from one another, and why the Hamptons is such a special place to her. She also shared her top 5 interior design tips as inspiration.⁠
⁠
Can you discuss your background and how you got started with interior design?⁠
⁠
HM: I studied business and apparel merchandising. After graduating, my first job was at a women’s contemporary showroom in NYC. I had always loved fashion and wanted to be in the industry. After a year, I realized it wasn’t quite what I expected. I had always been interested in interior design, so I took a leap of faith and accepted a job as an assistant to an interior designer. I was initially nervous to leave fashion, but I figured I could always return. I ended up loving it and worked with her for eight years, learning the ins and outs of the business. I also took classes on weekends and evenings to learn computer programs, scaling, and other essential skills. After leaving that position and having my first son, I started my own company, which has snowballed into what we are today.⁠

  • Comedian Des Bishop took the stage at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center this week and delivered laugh after laugh. A native New Yorker, Des moved to Ireland in his teenage years, which ultimately inspired his start in comedy and a successful career that has spanned three decades.⁠
⁠
His comedy is full of observational humor and nostalgia, whether it be about his many cross-cultural experiences, an ever-changing societal landscape, and his own personal stories growing up. Des brings energy and a unique perspective to every show, evident at his Westhampton show, the place he has spent all his summers since the 90s.⁠
⁠
Des spoke more about his background, how his experiences have shaped his approach to comedy, his connection with the East End, and his WHBPAC show.⁠
⁠
Can you tell us a bit about your background and how you first got into comedy?⁠
⁠
DB: Well, my background is a little complicated, but the quick version is I grew up in Queens, flunked out of St. Francis Prep at 14, and ended up going to Ireland to boarding school in 1990. It was a crazy, life-changing experience, but it definitely saved my education and ultimately inspired a comedy career that in the early days focused a lot on being an outsider looking in. It’s hard to know if I ever would have tried stand-up if I hadn’t been in Ireland. I got sober at 19 and it was a comedian I knew from that world that pushed me to try stand up. Once I got on stage that was all she wrote. I was addicted.⁠
