Taste For Equity 2022 Gala

We’ll be pouring 3 of our wines at the 2022 Taste For Equity Gala, which is currently sold out!

https://www.pdxtaste.org/2022-gala

TASTE for Equity Gala

As the work of racial reckoning and advancing equity in our community can be long and difficult, we must find time to celebrate the progress, re-energize and build our common bonds in that effort. TASTE for Equity offers just that: a celebration, re-inspiration for the journey, and connections that count.

Join with leaders across cultures and traditional divides to forge deeper connections, celebrate the richness of Oregon’s BIPOC and LGBTQ+ food and wine industry and inspire one another to work toward a more equitable community.

Presented by OnPoint Credit Union, the 2022 Gala will showcase a diverse group of local chefs, winemakers, poets, and musicians. We’ll honor a variety of local equity heroes, spotlighting how the Portland Metro region is leaning into love.

All proceeds from event sponsors and ticket sales support four local culturally specific and equity-based nonprofits.
