City Winery
City Winery is a winery, restaurant, music venue and private event location in Hudson Square, New York City. Other locations include Atlanta, Chicago, Nashville, Boston, Washington D.C., and Philadelphia, PA. Satellite locations are sited in Chicago and New York City. A location in Montgomery, New York, at former textile mill, the first one outside a major city, is also planned for 2018.
Founded in 2008 by CEO Michael Dorf, the venue has hosted gigs by Graham Nash, Norah Jones and Lee Ann Womack. It also runs a set of free early evening weekday gigs for local musicians. Each City Winery location is also a fully functioning urban winery, importing grapes from all over the world to create unique locally made wines.
Shlomo Lipetz, also a member of Team Israel at the World Baseball Classic in March 2017, serves as the Vice President of programming, and books music for their five locations. Lipetz began working at City Winery in 2008 with its founding.
