The Italian Compass: A Journey Across the Peninsula
Pack your palate and join us on Thursday, May 28th at 6:30 PM for an expedition through the soul of Italy. This is a curated journey from the rugged, green heart of the mainland to the sun-drenched shores of the Mediterranean islands. Italy is a mosaic of ancient soils and hidden valleys, and we’ve mapped out a route that captures the country's incredible diversity.
Guided by our resident explorer and wine expert, Tracey, we will navigate the distinct landscapes that define "The Boot." Our trek begins in the misty, landlocked hills of Umbria before scaling the prestigious heights of Tuscany’s Montalcino. From there, we’ll head south to the salt-aired plains of Puglia’s coast and finally cross the water to the volcanic frontier of Sicily to discover the vibrant energy of island viticulture.
Tracey will share the stories behind these native grapes and the geological wonders that make each sip a true "sense of place." Whether you’re a seasoned traveler of the vine or just getting your passport stamped for the first time, this is an evening of discovery, great company, and the kind of conversation that only happens over a shared bottle.
We are going to feature these four wines:
1. Arnaldo-Caprai Grecante Grechetto from Umbria
2. Castello Monaci Primitivo Salento Pilùna from Puglia
3. Feudo Montoni Vigna Lagnusa Nero d'Avola from Sicily
4. Verbena Brunello di Montalcino from Tuscany
What to Expect:
Expert-Led Tasting: Learn the history, geography, and "terroir" that give these wines their unique personality. We'll dive into the impact of terroir, the unique soil types, and the centuries-old winemaking traditions.
Interactive Learning: We’ll break down tasting notes, food pairing secrets, and learn about the diverse native grape varieties and significant winemakers of this dynamic region.
Exclusive Savings: All attendees will receive 10% off every bottle of the featured wines purchased during the event.
Come for the wine, meet other wine lovers, and leave with a new favorite bottle (or four!).

Hard Rock Cafe

Fall in Love with Rock All Over Again
Inside the legendary Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, discover an experience where music isn’t just heard… but felt.
Rock Never Dies is a one-of-a-kind immersive theatrical event from American Immersion Theater that is part concert, part love story, and fully a magical journey. This groundbreaking production invites you to dine, drink, and fall headfirst into the soul of rock and roll.
Enjoy a full three-course meal inside the Magical Mystery Museum of Hard Rock, a place where music has power, memories come alive, and one life is changed forever every night. It’s an experience that inspires you to keep dreaming and march to the beat of your own drum.
At the heart of the story is Caroline, a young artist who’s lost hope and heart. As legendary music icons come to life around her, she’s forced to confront love, loss, and the courage to take the stage again. Along the way, you won’t just watch the story, but be part of it.
Created by award-winning, immersive visionary Scott Cramton, often called the Willy Wonka of Immersive Theater, this joyful, high-energy spectacle blends iconic rock anthems with romance, comedy, and electrifying audience interaction.
Whether you're on a date, celebrating something special, or just chasing that feeling music used to give you, this is your night.
All it takes&nbsp;
is one song, one moment, and a second chance
to change everything.

It is a beautiful venue with a sweeping view of the New York City skyline. Doors open at 4pm, and the runway begins at 5pm. The event celebrates sustainable style while fundraising for Girls Inc. of New Jersey empowering underserved girls to be strong, smart, and bold, with all proceeds going directly toward their programs. There will be 35 models and 7 designers attending the show, all of whom are volunteering their time to help promote sustainable fashion and support the cause of Girls Inc.
