ART + Advocacy will have a wine pull in this year's
auction!
The wine pull will include 50 bottles of wine. Attendees
can purchase wine for $40.00 each. Each buyer will randomly
select a cork which correlates with a bottle of wine.
Buyers will not know which cork corresponds with which bottle of
wine at the time of purchase. There are over 25 bottles of
wine valued over $100 in the wine pull.
Below are some of the generous donors of wine to ART +
Advocacy's first wine pull:
Morris Robinowitz, a Dallas wine consultant, importer and
