The 16th Annual Avenues Spotlight on Wine was a truly unique experience this year that provided virtual guests an opportunity to sip back and relax while supporting Avenues.

With the support of the Chicago Partnership Board the Spotlight on Wine, sponsors and donors the Spotlight on Wine raised nearly $54,000. Wine boxes, contained 2 bottles of wine and a tasty snack prepared by Hel’s Kitchen. The boxes were personally delivered by members of the staff and the Chicago Partnership Board.

Virtual guests watched a recorded program emceed by Event Co-Chairs Joseph Bertoni and Matthew Blohm with an appearance by Jim Cosma of Atlas Imports, who generously donated the wine for the event. Also featured were Avenues program participants, who will benefit greatly by the funds raised from the Spotlight on Wine.

Virtual guests had the opportunity to bid on silent auction prizes, including a commissioned one- of-a-kind art piece by the program participants of Avenues. Also available for purchase were coasters with artwork designed by Creative Avenues program participants.

Thank you to event Co-Chairs Joseph Bertoni and Matthew Blohm as well as the rest of the Chicago Partnership Board for all of their work on making this event such a success. Follow this link to view a thank you message from the leadership team at Avenues.
