Unfiltered by Amy Racine, a series created to convene some of the most inspiring voices in beverage while spotlighting purpose-driven hospitality, returns with a special interactive edition featuring Kanye Tomiwa, a Washington, D.C.-based eco-artist and architectural designer.
Known for transforming reclaimed wine corks into large-scale sculptural works, Tomiwa has collected more than 600,000 corks over the past six years. Through his studio, Cork HAUSE, and national recycling initiative, A Million Corks, he partners with wineries, restaurants, and cultural institutions to transform discarded corks into installations that celebrate sustainability, wine culture, and community.
Join us for a cocktail-style reception featuring a curated beverage menu and an interactive cork installation that will evolve in real time with contributions from guests throughout the evening.
A portion of proceeds will benefit RETI Cork Recycling, helping divert natural corks from landfills and supporting sustainable recycling and reuse initiatives across the wine and hospitality industries.
