The Vibe
Find your balance. We’re heading to the Northside (46260) for a grounding evening at the home of Chris Douglas. It’s the perfect Indoor/Outdoor/Patio night—the "Golden Hour" of the year, where summer warmth meets autumn crispness. Our Intentionally Welcoming space is open for you to center yourself and connect with others before the busy season begins.
The Crowd & Theme
We’re coming together for The Gratitude Gathering. Tonight isn't about what you wear, but what you do. We’ll take a moment together to thank the sponsors who make this community possible. The dress code is Upscale but Casual—think comfortable layers and earth tones.
The Spread
We’ve prepared a harvest-inspired spread of Costco favorites. Enjoy savory Rotisserie Chicken Salad, bold Gouda Cheese, and crunchy Wheat Thins. The Spinach Artichoke Dip is warm and ready.
The Pour
The pitch-in is the only thing you need to bring! Since the club provides the full food spread, we ask everyone bring a $15 bottle of wine or a premium non-alcoholic drink to share. Non-drinkers are welcome too!
The Mission
Come socialize with intention. We partner with our sponsors and our host to create a sustainable network of support. It’s about more than business; it’s about appreciating the ecosystem that lets us thrive.
Take a peek at our extremely short Mission Statement to see how we make every voice count.
COMMUNITY MATTERS
The Diversity Wine Club believes in the power of shared wisdom. We are excited to host Chris Paulsen, CEO of the Indiana Youth Group (IYG), for our Community Matters Speaker Series. Chris will join us for fifteen minutes to discuss the incredible legacy of IYG and how we can all play a part in mentoring the next generation of LGBTQ+ leaders.
WE GIVE BACK to invest in the future of our city. Your presence helps ensure that local youth have access to the mentors, resources, and safe spaces they need to shape their own destinies. Proceeds from this Event benefit our Charity Partnership with IYG. Your ticket is more than a registration—it is an investment in tomorrow!
Our Heartfelt Thanks
An event of this scale is only possible thanks to the dedication of our incredible team. We are fueled by the energy of nearly 40 volunteers who bring our mission to life. To everyone who gave their time and talent to make this specific event a success: Thank you.
