St. Croix Food & Wine Experience. By. ST. CROIX FOUNDATION

The St. Croix Foundation for Community Development announced Thursday the return of the St. Croix Food & Wine Experience, coming after a two-year hiatus due to Covid-19.

"This beloved celebration of the culture and cuisine of St. Croix is back for 2022 with one of the FWE’s most popular events, Wine in the Warehouse, at Bohlke International Aviation on Thursday, December 1, 2022 from 6:00-9:00 p.m.," the St. Croix Foundation said.

Featuring delectable food from Chopped Champion and James Beard Fellow Shacafrica Simmons, better known as Chef Shac, as well as some of St. Croix's best chefs and caterers, complemented by fine spirits from Coca Cola 1 - all set against the sleek backdrop of live music and Bohlke International Aviation's fleet of jets – Wine in the Warehouse is the perfect way to ring in the holidays, according to the release.

“We are excited to bring back this beloved community event as a means of raising both spirits and funds to support the Foundation’s critical community development work,” said Deanna James, St. Croix Foundation president.

"As we prepare to lead some of the most deeply impactful work in our organization’s history, the revenue generated from Wine in the Warehouse will be leveraged many times over and reinvested into the community to support the Foundation's territory-wide mission of social, economic, and educational transformation," Ms. James added.

Tickets for the event are $150 per person and will be available for purchase beginning on Thursday, November 1, 2022 at http://www.stxfoodandwine.com.
