THE VIBE: CONNECT & BELONG
You don’t need the luck of the Irish to find your place here! We’re celebrating St. Patrick’s Day a few days late, gathered indoors at the lovely home of Helen B. and Julia M. in the 46256 area. The atmosphere will be charming, high-energy, and Intentionally Welcoming.
Hassle-Free Access: We’ve made it as easy as possible for you to get out of the house and into the celebration! The venue is easy to find and features PLENTY OF EASY PARKING directly at the home. Whether you’re a long-time member or a first-timer, simply follow the laughter, and you'll fit right in.
THEME & THREADS: DRESS TO CONNECT
It’s time to go green or go home! We’re gathering the community for a sea of emerald green, so please wear your best green or a full St. Patrick’s outfit. Whether it’s a subtle shamrock lapel pin, a bold green blazer, or your most festive Irish attire, let your style shine. The dress code is Upscale but Casual—show us your most creative "lucky" look!
The "Lucky Look" Showdown: Bring your A-game for some serious bragging rights! During the evening, we will host a live "winner-by-applause" contest to crown the most festive guest in the room. Will you be the one to claim the community’s roar?
THE PAIRING: ARTISAN EATS & YOUR FAVORITE POUR
Our flavor ensemble is the gold standard of club favorites—and the rule of thumb is simple: If Costco sells it, it will be there! We are orchestrating a massive spread designed to keep the party high-energy and your palate satisfied.
The "Pot of Gold" Spread Includes:
Chilled Delights: Chilled Shrimp Cocktail, Formaggio Artisan Wraps, and a Fresh Cut Fruit Bowl to "taste the rainbow".
The Main Stage: Our signature Rotisserie Chicken Salad, Roasted Chicken Rollers, and Artisan Rolls.
The Dip & Crunch Station: Spinach, Artichoke & Parmesan Dip and Roasted Pine Nut Hummus served with an array of Pita Chips, Bagel Chips, Grain Crackers, Triscuits, Wheat Thins, and RITZ.
Garden Fresh: Mini Peppers, Cocktail Cucumbers, and Premium Gouda Cheeses.
The Sweet Finish: A decadent selection of Gourmet Cookies.
Join the Ritual: The pitch-in is all you need to bring! Since the club provides this full, premium food spread and chilled Ice Mountain Spring Water, we ask that every guest bring a $15 bottle of wine or a premium non-alcoholic drink to share. This community contribution creates a massive, diverse "library of pours" for everyone to enjoy.
COMMUNITY MATTERS: 15 MINUTES OF INSIGHT
The Diversity Wine Club is more than just a party; it is a space where we grow together. We are incredibly honored to welcome Megan Johnson, the Artistic Director of the Indianapolis Women's Chorus, to our Community Matters Speaker Series.
Prepare for a rare treat: This fifteen-minute session is more than a talk—it is a live vocal performance. You will experience firsthand the transformative power of song as Megan uses her voice to amplify diverse stories and harmonize our community connection. It is a melodic highlight designed to leave you inspired and connected.
WE GIVE BACK: PURPOSE-DRIVEN IMPACT
In today’s climate, the arts are facing unprecedented funding challenges, and the organizations that give our community a voice are often the first to feel the pressure. The Diversity Wine Club is more than a social circle; we are a support system.
The "No-Pressure" Promise: Leave your checkbook at home! We believe in purpose-driven impact without the "pitch." Absolutely no fundraising is allowed at the party. We want you to focus entirely on the music and the movement. Your $10 ticket is your donation—once you’re through the door, your only job is to Connect & Belong.
Your attendance is the engine of change:
Direct Financial Power: Your ticket helps support our Charity Partner, the Indianapolis Women's Chorus (IWC). This simple act helps bridge the funding gap, ensuring their mission stays solvent and their music stays loud.
A Massive Stage: By showing up, you offer Megan Johnson and the IWC a platform of 14,387 local members who believe community matters.
Sustaining the Soul of Indy: You are ensuring that Indianapolis remains a vibrant, inclusive, and melodic home for everyone.
Don't just join a party—join a movement to keep the music playing. Your presence is the most powerful "luck" the IWC could ask for.
