The Art Show We have commissioned 35
Sicilian artists
to create 70 unique
wine labels exclusively
for our event featuring Sicilian wines and food. The theme of
the labels is "Red and White".
Each of the labels represents an original work of art to enrich
your art collection, your wine cellar, and your life. They are
also an excellent value and opportunity for collection and gift-giving.
The wine labels will be affixed to a variety of purely Sicilian
wines selected by Vanvakys and provided by American importers and
distributors. The base price of each bottle is $100.00 USD,
and all bottles will be placed at auction (silent) at that starting
amount. Bids can be placed online, click
here.
Enjoy "Art in a bottle" and know that you are contributing
to a very important cause: percentage of proceeds will benefit The
Leukemia and Lymphoma Society New York City Chapter.
The food/wine tasting at Naima Italian Food and Wine The food and wine tasting is designed
and planned by Vanvakys Art International in collaboration with Naima.
A price fixed four course meal, with a choice for each course, is
offered to all guests and includes a taste of either red or white
wine for each savory course: antipasto (appetizer), primo (main course),
secondo (second course), and a choice of either Rosolio or Dessert
Wine for the Dolce course. A typical tasting amount is generally
two or three sips. Upon tasting the wines, guests are welcome to
purchase bottles at promotional prices exclusive to the event.
The silent auction Sponsors and guests will have the opportunity
to admire the artistically-labeled bottles on prominent display in
the dining room at Naima throughout the dinner events, online and
at a yet-to-be-determined location of similar prominence and significance. How to participate Bids will be accepted via telephone,
