The event will also feature food trucks, craft vendors and live music by Brian Fitzy. There’s no reason to worry about parking. Organizers have reserved the Henderson High School parking lot for attendees, with a short shuttle ride available to and from the event.

Tickets are $40 for general admission and $50 for VIP, which includes early entry, plus a lanyard to hold your tasting glass.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Charles A. Melton Arts and Education Center. The Mission of the historic center is to contribute to the quality of life for all people in the greater West Chester community by continuing its long commitment of providing educational, recreational, cultural and civic services.
