About The Event
Join us for the WBA Foundation's 22st Annual Wine Tasting and Silent Auction on Thursday, October 24, 2024, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.
Our tasting will be led by Jay Youmans, MW. A Master of Wine since 2004, Jay is managing director of the Capital Wine School in Washington, DC, and owner of Rock Creek Wine Merchants, a sales and marketing consultancy.
You will have a chance to bid online for dozens of unique and unbeatable auction items, some of which will be on display at the event. All of this will take place LIVE in the companionship of friends and acquaintances gathered in fellowship and in support of the WBAF. Don’t miss it!
Proceeds from the event benefit the WBAF Founders Fellowship and our Community Grant programs. Over the years, the WBAF has awarded almost $1 million to support the legal and related needs of many women and girls in DC. Help us award more grants in 2025; join us as an auction donor, sponsor, or registrant.
