WM Dinner Affinity Group

Wednesday, October 13, 2021  - GRNoir Wine & Jazz – 35 Division Ave S, Grand Rapids, MI 49503

“GRNoir is a wine and jazz bar that exists to celebrate the Global and American cultures of wine and jazz.  It’s a place for joy, a space to laugh and love, to share stories and meet friends old and new.  It’s live music, a rich offering of global wines, surprising small plates and a welcoming place to learn more about wine, jazz and the people and places that gave birth to them.”

GRNoir is a Black owned business featuring the city’s first Black sommelier. 

The wine menu is extensive with multiple woman-owned and Black-owned wineries featured and noted within the wine list.  Link to wine menu:  https://www.grnoir.com/MENU/Wine-List Link to food menu:  https://www.grnoir.com/MENU/MENU

Due to limited seating, registrations will be limited to a maximum of 12 people.  As such, it is vital that you register if you plan on attending as well as let one of the co-chair know if you cannot make it so that we can open the registration up to others that may be interested. 

Dinner runs from 5:30-7:00pm. We’ll meet in the bar at 5:00, for those that can, and then move to dinner at 5:30. Be sure to bring your appetite and plenty of business cards to pass around.

It’s so helpful and important that you register on the InForum website each month so we can have an accurate count and let the restaurant know. And if you find you can’t make it after registering, please let Angie, Kathy, or Chris know.
