On the Chicago stop of her cookbook tour, Carla Lalli focuses on the finer things, like an imaginary wine bar called "Finest Wine List." It's a place that exists only in the daydreams spun by Carla and her sister, Nina. And now--on the occasion of Carla's new book--for one night only, in Ukrainian Village. Carla has invited Marie Cheslik, sommelier and internet personality, to join her for a wine tasting at Present Company, All Together Now's gathering space.

Mix pals, patio, tunes, pizza, and wine for a real nice Sunday. Come hang out with us, DJ Alex Great, Oscar from Silvia’s Pizza, and the cool vibrations of Chicago Avenue. Oscar is slinging his extra-special sourdough tavern-style pizzas, Alex will set the mood, and we’ll keep your glasses full.

We're gonna be wine-ing and dyeing with natural dyer Liz Mortenson of Laila Textiles. Liz is joining us for a hands-on exploration of a couple of excellent 'natural' things: making lovely stuff with plant dyes, and drinking delicious low-intervention wines.

As people who spend a fair amount of time with our noses in wine glasses, we appreciate a thoughtfully-crafted sensory encounter. Thus, we LOVE Diptyque. This French candle crafter makes some of the dreamiest, most evocative, just plain enjoyable fragrances we've ever had the joy of sniffing, and we're thrilled to welcome them to All Together Now for an evening of scents, sips, and nibbles

Nerine will show you how to create a haunting, sculptural centerpiece using local, autumnal blooms with an eery twist to ring in the Halloween season. Attendees will learn sustainable mechanics, best practices for modern floral design and leave with a seasonal, unique vase arrangement. We’ll make sure you don’t go hungry or thirsty, too.

Find your creative flow and explore the art of suminagashi, or meditative paper marbling, with Kelly Laughlin of Odette Press. Suminagashi translates to "floating/spilled ink," and in this workshop, you'll make mesmerizing marbled designs using ink, breath, paper, and water. Explore this inspiring, simple process and make marbled papers to take home while snacking on bagels, brunch bites, coffee, and tea from the All Together Now team.

Join us for a playful afternoon of making magic. And by making magic, we mean eating cheese and candy. Together.) You'll be led on a trick or treat tasting through five artisan cheeses and a smorgasbord of classic Halloween candy. Discuss! Debate! Is chocolatey superior to sour? How is a Butterfinger so dang good with Gouda? Will Hi-Chews + Manchego change your life? Why IS candy corn?
