Cooking With The Italian Master – July 2, 2011

The winery is excited to announce a returning class hosted by a long time friend – famed Vancouver restaurateur Umberto Menghi!

With a classic Italian menu, this evening combines old friends with amazing food and untold years of culinary mastery. Reception for the event begins at 6:30pm, with dinner starting at 7pm; tickets are $299 per person. Tickets will sell out for this intimate class.

Trama Makes Music Under the Golden Mile Sky – July 8, 2011

Doni Underhill, Ray Roper, Brian Lousley and David Wills are the voices of ‘Trama’, a band which has been a mainstay in the Vancouver music scene for over two decades. Though primarily a classic rock band, they stay current by including some of the newest songs on today’s charts in their sets. They understand their audience and can be counted on to get you on your feet dancing the night away! Playing in Hester Creek’s outdoor amphitheatre, this night of music under the stars is a perfect way to end a long Okanagan summer day. Stretch out, sip and enjoy!

Tickets are $50 on the patio or $35 on the lawn; please call 250-498-4435 to purchase. Attendees must be legal drinking age.

In addition to these two headlining events, Hester Creek has a summer cooking class series, an event featuring the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra, and much, much more! Learn more about all of the events at www.hestercreek.com or call 250-498-4435 to learn more.
