Laithwaites Wine Supports the LGBTQ+ Community with New Initiative
Laithwaites Wine is excited to introduce the Pride Blend, a limited-edition wine crafted to support the American LGBTQ+ Museum. This collaboration showcases their commitment to inclusivity and celebrates the richness of LGBTQ+ culture. With 10% of each purchase going to the museum, this endeavor highlights the importance of visibility and community support.
Collaborative Efforts Highlighting Community Spirit
In partnership with The American LGBTQ+ Museum, Laithwaites has created a wine that not only tantalizes taste buds but also serves a greater purpose. "We are deeply honored by the creation of the Pride Blend and the generous support it brings to the American LGBTQ+ Museum," said Ben Garcia, Executive Director at the museum. This project reflects a shared vision of fostering inclusivity through love and support.
Cherishing Stories Through Every Bottle
The American LGBTQ+ Museum is working towards establishing a permanent venue dedicated to preserving and sharing LGBTQ+ narratives. With every bottle of Pride Blend sold, funds are generated to enhance the museum's ability to share these important stories and promote understanding. "We hope the LGBTQ+ community will proudly display this bottle during their celebrations, knowing the proceeds help create special experiences within the museum," remarked Tony Laithwaite, the founder of Laithwaites Wine.
The Artistry Behind the Pride Blend
The Pride Blend is a rich red wine, expertly crafted by Annette Bergevin, a talented lesbian winemaker renowned in Washington. The label features artwork chosen through a contest held by the museum, titled "All That Glitters Is You," which beautifully captures the essence of the San Diego Pride Parade, created by internationally known artist RD Riccoboni.
