1st up this week is Crystal McDonald co-owner with her brother Cody Lathrop of Xclusive Events here in Wichita. If you have been to any major event in Wichita since 2007 you’ve probably have seen one of their bright green “Booze Trucks.” Through hard work and providing exceptional bar service to many local charity events the business has grown in to Xclusive Event Services. More trucks have been added including a local craft beer truck, a great addition to any outdoor event. Continued growth included the addition of party planning, event planning and execution, catering and bartending services for in-home entertaining or gatherings of hundreds. www.xclusiveeventservices.com
For the past 10 years or so, Xclusive has been providing contract beverage service for Wichita Boat House events. Several weeks ago the brother sister team and their talented staff have taken over management of The Wichita Boat House. The renewed Boat House will be available for private and corporate events, weddings and parties as it has been, but there are plans for many public events. The new energy and dedication offered by Xclusive Event staff will be a welcome addition on the river.
Later in the program Teri Mott, Director of Marketing and Communications for Wichita Festivals joins us to talk about one of Wichita’s favorite events…Autumn & Art 2020. www.autumnandart.com
As you can imagine, COVID has forced the event in to the virtual world but will still be a great showcase for local artists and their works.
It remains a 3-day event running September 18,19 and 20. While you may have missed out on the always popular opening night Patron Party, there is still lots of virtual fun to be had. You can still purchase art and have some great entertainment including my virtual tasting of 4 wines Saturday evening at 6:00 p.m. Central.
Good Life Guy’s Virtual Wine Tasting – Sep 19, 6:00 p.m. Central
Face Book LIVE – 2 Chards/2 Cabs ~ A Special Autumn & Art Tasting
