AN OAKY LITTLE ITEM WITH NOTES OF HYPE AND HEY BUDDY

For the love of God, Montresor, it's almost time for Taste of Hope.

The 15th annual iteration of this oenophilic fundraiser for City of Hope will go down on 5/17 at Three Sixty in NYC. Record attendance is expected. Alissa Pollack and Steve Bartels (pictured), as well as Tom Corson, Richard Palmese, Dave Dyer, Peter Gray, L.A. Reid and their fellow co-hosts, urge you to get registered by going here.

Co-sponsored by Full Stop Management and Palmese Entertainment, Taste of Hope will, as ever, raise funds to combat dread diseases while making entertainment professionals giggly on the grape. You are encouraged to attend—and to use rideshare.
