AJ's Fine Foods will present the fundraiser from noon to 3 p.m. May 20, 2023.
One of the tastiest annual traditions, AJ's The Art of Wine and Tastes of Summer, is returning next month to Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts.
AJ's Fine Foods will present the fundraiser from noon to 3 p.m. May 20, 2023, for Scottsdale Arts, the nonprofit arts organization that operates the center. This annual affair is an opportunity to taste a curated list of wines along with epicurean pairings in an entertaining setting while supporting the arts.
The tasting list is hand-selected by AJ's Cellar Masters and features selections from the store's Summer Wine Spectacular and Love of... Rosé selections. Between tastings, guests will be invited to partake in a silent auction offering fine wines, elaborate gift baskets, culinary accessories and other items from AJ's and its partners. Attendees planning to stock their wine cellars will save 25% on orders of six or more bottles at the event.
Proceeds from AJ's The Art of Wine and Tastes of Summer benefits programming offered by Scottsdale Arts and its branches: Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA), Scottsdale Public Art, Scottsdale Arts Learning & Innovation, Canal Convergence and Civic Center Live!
