Elemental: WaterFire Providence’s Benefit Bash!

WaterFire is a local institution, and on the crisp first day of fall at the Elemental WaterFire Benefit Bash, Bottles was proud to support and donate to this local arts organization that inspires Providence and its visitors.

It was a beautiful clear evening full of wine, cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and the quintessential creative scenery of WaterFire, including performers, lights, live and silent auctions, and of course the blazing baskets we know and love. We supplied some of our favorite wines for the generous attendees to enjoy; a variety of French, Californian, and Italian wines to choose from, including red, white and champagne.

It was a celebration of the elemental experience of WaterFire that transforms our perceptions of the urban landscape. We hope everyone enjoyed the event and hope to see you soon at the next WaterFire event!

Cheers!

Trinity’s Rep’s Red, White & Groove!

This year, Bottles was once again proud to sponsor Trinity Rep’s 3rd annual wine-tasting fundraiser, Red White & Groove! The event was a wonderful celebration at the Pell Chafee Performance Center in Downtown Providence with live music provided by The Superchief Trio and third year students in the MFA Acting program at Brown/Trinity Rep, 3Pile. We also enjoyed wonderful food from local Providence restaurants, including Chez Pascal, The Grange, Nick’s on Broadway, Russell Morrin, and of course, delicious Walrus & Carpenter Oysters!

The fundraiser was a big success with 20% of wine sales going toward Trinity Rep’s artistic and education programming!

Bottles for the Cause at AS220’s Action Speaks Radio!

This year Bottles was a proud supporter of local arts organization, AS220 and their live panel discussion radio show, Action Speaks; Underappreciated Dates that Changed America. For over 17 years, Action Speaks Radio has provided a live venue for the public to engage in thoughtful discussions about history, culture and current events. Panels are recorded, edited and broadcast online and on radio stations across the US. We were happy to provide wine for panelists, staff and volunteers who had helped put each show together this fall season.
