Party Tonight In A Wine-Lover’s Paradise
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Are you an oenophile? Or maybe you’re the type to try and fake your way through a fancy wine list.
Either way, you’re in luck: Tonight, Wednesday June 21, Yeshiva University Museum is holding its annual gala at the City Winery, and tickets are still available. The gala’s theme is “The Vine Cheereth,” and the event honors the Herzog family “for cheering us and strengthening global Jewish life,” according to the YUM Gala event page.
Tonight’s program includes a wine tasting and a talk on the history of wine and winemaking between David Herzog and Rabbi Dr. Meir Solovetchik. Dinner will feature some wonderful food-and-wine pairings and the evening will conclude with an auction of rare wines and wine-related artifacts.

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
