DRUNK: An Evening of Wine, Jewish Text Study, Art, Music, Theater and Imbibing

Who was the world’s first drunkard? Can wine serve us as a stairway to heaven? What did our holy rabbis really think about those who abstain from drinking? All this and much more in DRUNK 2016, a night devoted to art, humor and some serious drinking!

You’ve had wine paired with food. Now try wine paired with texts. LABA: A Laboratory for Jewish Culture at the 14th Street Y is holding DRUNK, an evening of wine and text tasting on January 21, 2015 at 7:30pm.

Held in the Theater at the 14th Street Y, guests will study texts on the theme of intoxication from the Torah and Talmud with LABA teacher Ruby Namdar, while drinking and learning about wines selected to match those specific texts by a professional sommelier.

Throughout the night, LABA artist fellows will explore altered states, intoxication, grapes, tastes and the mysteries of fermentation. LABA fellows are Gal Beckerman, Gon Ben Ari, Lital Dotan, Lainie Fefferman, Joshua Max Feldman, Jessica Gross, Shanti Grumbine, Rebecca Margolick and Maxx Berkowitz, Kendell Pinkney, Hanan Elstein, Lior Zalmanson.
