We are ending the year in traditional Wagner Society fashion under anything but typical circumstances.
We are unable to don our holiday finery, gather together, sip champagne, dine and enjoy a concert in person at our much beloved Marine’s Memorial Club and Hotel.
But we are Wagnerians and we are also innovative and creative.
This years’ party will be held on Zoom. To enliven the celebration, we will soon roll out “Postcards from Cosima”. These periodic e-mails will include: menu suggestions, recipe demonstrations by Celebrity Chefs, Wagnerian craft cocktails demonstrated by local mixologists, a wallet-friendly wine menu complete with a tasting check list, a drawing for prizes and MUSIC! We have organized both pre-recorded music and LIVE music for everyone’s enjoyment.
We will end this year with gusto and share the fellowship of the Society to close out 2020 and look ahead to 2021. There is no charge for this WSNC Members Only event.
